[北海道] Daisetsuzan National Park and Kurodake Ropeway Autumn Tour

• Escape the city and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Hokkaido’s autumn season on this full-day tour from Sapporo. Travel comfortably by coach to the heart of Daisetsuzan National Park, home to some of Japan’s earliest and most vibrant fall foliage. Known as one of the earliest spots in Japan to welcome the autumn season, this tour takes you to five breathtaking locations where fall colors paint the landscape in brilliant shades of gold, crimson, and amber.
• Ride the scenic Kurodake Ropeway for a bird’s-eye view of golden valleys and colorful mountainsides. Walk through peaceful river gorges, marvel at dramatic canyons framed by fiery leaves, and relax beside a quiet mountain lake mirrored with autumn hues. At the twin waterfalls of Ginga and Ryusei, witness the mesmerizing contrast of white water flowing through a forest ablaze with color.

After meeting your friendly tour conductor, you’ll board a comfortable coach and begin your 3-hour journey deep into the heart of Hokkaido's stunning Daisetsuzan region. Your first destination is Mt. Kurodake, one of the most iconic peaks in the Daisetsuzan mountain range. Here, you’ll take the Kurodake Ropeway for a sweeping aerial view of the colorful tapestry below. As you glide up the mountain, you'll be surrounded by a sea of vibrant foliage—yellow birch, fiery maple, and golden larch trees blanketing the slopes in all directions. From the observation deck, the panoramic vistas stretch across rugged valleys and peaks, offering one of the most unforgettable views of Hokkaido’s fall season. (Best viewed mid-September to early October) Since lunch is not included, please be sure to prepare your own meal in advance before coming to the meeting place.
