Asahidake Ropeway is a popular sightseeing spot where you can easily visit the highest mountain in Hokkaido, Asahidake, and enjoy a 10-minute aerial walk. The ropeway operates throughout the year (with inspection periods) and takes you to the dynamic four seasons of the Daisetsuzan mountain range. Up to 101 people can ride at a time, and the panoramic view of the Daisetsuzan Mountains from the train window can be appreciated.

From July to August, a variety of alpine plants bloom and climbers enjoy trekking in the cool weather. In winter, rare natural phenomena such as diamond dust and sun pillars sometimes appear, and many photographers are eager to catch a glimpse of them.
