What other travelers are saying about Mt. Moiwa Ropeway
The Sapporo Mountain Moiwa Ropeway is not just a means of transportation; it's a gateway to a winter wonderland. Especially during the winter months, the sight from atop Mount Moiwa is breathtaking, with snow-covered landscapes stretching as far as the eye can see. As you glide through the air in the cozy gondolas, you'll be treated to panoramic views of Sapporo blanketed in white. It's an experience that truly captures the magic of Hokkaido's snowy paradise.
I admit that I came here to see the view of Sapporo. I went at the evening and the view was amazing. It was really cold as it snowed briefly in the day. There was ice and snow on the ground.
It take two cable cars to get to the top. The first cable car was smooth but the second was kind of rocky. Just to let you know if you choose to go to the top.
I do implore you to go as the view is spectacular.
Be cognizant of the time the cable cars arrive if you have to be down from the mountain to meet your ride.
A quiet and pretty place to be at. For our experience, we did not have anyone rushing or fighting space with us.
Probably it was a weekday but all in all, d experience was definitely surreal. We had a great time chilling away, enjoying the snow. There is an outdoor area that you can walk around too without the hassle of control.
We were free to roam and visit places around the station. From outside to inside and more. We had a blast taking photos everywhere.
The shop also had many different types of souvenirs. Do take ur time shopping around ya.
Cheers!!
This is the best attraction in downtown Sapporo you should never miss. Easily get commuted via streetcar and a complimentary bus to the Moiwa Ropeway station . Reasoning Entrance price
Mount Moiwa is a small forrested mountain southwwst of Sapporo. It is popular because of the sightseeing spot of the spectacular view out over the city from an observation deck at the top. We can see a wonderful, colourful and full of beautiful lighting of Sapporo city. The mount Moiwa ropeway climbs from the base of the mountain three quarters up the mountain to a transfer station. Then a mini cablecar travels the rest of the way to the upper station at the summit where there is an observation deck and restaurant with amazing scene views out over the city. There are also a planetarium and theater at the station. The breeze air at top in winter is really something that creates unforgetfull moment at mount Moiwa.
