Summer Mountain Trekking at Hakuba Hachihō Ridge

While Hakuba Hachihō Ridge is renowned as a winter ski resort, in summer it transforms into a popular trekking destination where alpine wildflowers bloom in abundance. The gondola and lift system can take you up to an elevation of 1,830 meters, and the trail to Hachihō Pond is accessible enough for beginners to enjoy. The Hakuba Three Mountains reflected in Hachihō Pond present a breathtakingly beautiful sight. From July through August, alpine wildflowers such as Japanese false hellebore and alpine lily reach their peak bloom.
