Fantastic backpacker accommodation. Very Reasonable rates, everything you need for low cost trip. Niseko powder is unbeatable.

Hirafubackpackers is a great lodge. Highly recommended on price, proximity and vibe - we all had a great time in and out of the backcountry. This was our second year in a row - great renovation, new linen, and a great bunch of managers.
