From the top of the ropeway, you can walk around the area. It's a loop and it's an easy walk where you can see the steam vents. I also hiked up towards the summit of the mountain. It's quite steep with loose gravel along the way. I only made it about half way because I wanted to catch the last ropeway back down. Give yourself enough time if you want to hike all the way to the summit and back.

Absolutely stunning! This "rainbow field" is definitely our favourite one in the area. The parking fee is waived if you purchase the food at the restaurant on the second floor of the entrance building. Very fair and reasonable. The food was good too. Highly recommended and must visit!

The main attraction at Daisetsuzan National Park is this 12.4-mile gorge with towering cliffs and tumbling waterfalls.

We visited this place on two consecutive days, on 9-10 October 2019. The first day was raining and wind was strong, and hence both Ropeway and Pair Lift was closed. Suggest to check the weather for the day before making the trip down, as unfavourable weather can really render a day trip to the Gorge area fruitless. We took a local train from Asahikawa to Kamikawa station, followed by the bus ride from Kamikawa which took about 30 minutes. Do check out the train and bus timings before you make the trip down. On the way to the Gorge, you can already see a beautiful row of trees in their yellow autumn colours on the right side of the bus ride. The Gorge itself is beautiful and awash in autumn colours in the 2 days we were there, as early October seems the best time to visit. One good place to visit is the Momojidani Hike, the start point being a 15 minute walk on the road to the right from the exit of the Ropeway station. It is a moderately difficult hike especially from the halfway point due to the largely uneven walking trail. The Gorge area has various shops and places for drinks and food, plus an informative tourist information centre adjacent to the Ropeway station.
