For some extra fun in the snow visitors can try cross country skiing (on the Winter Olympic course), snowshoe tours through the scenic valley, and snow rafting. There is also a lot to see and do in Hakuba for those who need a break from the slopes. Popular excursions include trips to Matsumoto Castle, Nagano's Zenkoji Temple, and tours to see the Japanese snow monkeys at the Jigokudani hot springs which is an absolute must for animal lovers.
