About this experience
Mt. Moiwa is one of Sapporo’s most scenic spots, offering breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views of the city, Ishikari Bay, and the surrounding mountains. Located just a short distance from the city center, this popular observation point is accessible via the Mt. Moiwa Ropeway, making it a must-visit destination for nature lovers, couples, and photography enthusiasts. The romantic night view from the summit is considered one of the top three night views in Japan, making it especially popular for evening visits.
What to expect
Visitors can look forward to a scenic and relaxing experience, whether they choose to hike or take the ropeway to the summit. The daytime views offer a stunning outlook over Sapporo’s urban landscape and lush greenery, while the evening views transform the city into a sparkling sea of lights. Couples often visit the Bell of Happiness, a romantic landmark where they can ring the bell and attach a love padlock. The observation deck provides plenty of photo opportunities, and for those interested in astronomy, the Moiwa Star Hall adds an extra touch of magic.
