Board an overnight coach, sleep through the drive, and wake up to Hakuba in autumn. The morning is spent at Hakuba Mountain Harbor — a viewing terrace at 1,289 m looking straight across the Northern Alps in full colour — and the afternoon strolling Kamikochi, 'Japan's little Switzerland', around Kappa Bridge and the Azusa River. One night and one day, no hotel needed — back in the city that same evening. Departures from Tokyo, Osaka (Tennoji) and Nagoya (Kanayama), all three at the same price.
