You can experience the charm of nature throughout the four seasons through
activities such as "sky walks" that offer open views, mountain climbing and
trekking on the sacred mountain Hakkai-san, and more: fresh greenery and
lingering snow in spring, refreshing coolness in summer, and sea of clouds and
autumn leaves in autumn.
The ropeway summit station is at an altitude of 1,147m, and the temperature is
about 5 to 8 degrees Celsius lower than at the foot of the mountain. The
breeze that blows through is refreshing even in midsummer, making it feel like
you're in a summer resort.
From the observation deck, a 360° panoramic view spreads out before you,
including the Uonuma Plain, the mountains along the Joshinetsu border, and on
a clear day, the Sea of Japan and Sado Island. It is one of the best viewing
spots in Niigata Prefecture.
