Impressed by the 360° panorama of the Northern Alps

The Shinhotaka Ropeway, which also serves as an access route to Mt. Nishihotaka, allows you to enjoy magnificent views of the Northern Alps throughout the year, including fresh greenery, autumn leaves, and snowy scenery. The view from the only two-story gondola in Japan (as of May 2024) is so beautiful that it was awarded two stars in the Michelin Green Guide Japan. Everyone from children to adults can easily enjoy the spectacular scenery while experiencing the great nature of the Northern Alps and the world above the clouds. The walking path is a spot full of things to see, with a variety of plants blooming each season.
