What to do and see in Sapporo, Hokkaido: The Best Outdoor Activities

May 18, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

Probably best known for its eponymous beer, Sapporo—the capital of Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost island—has maintained the youthful and open atmosphere of the 1972 Olympic Winter Games, drawing international visitors for its annual Snow Festival and its world-famous ramen. Those seeking out the full diversity of Japanese cuisine will want to visit: a city with a ramen-inspired theme park is one that embraces and pampers foodies.

An amazing holiday, Silas and his team guided us round the mountains finding fresh track powder skiing throughout our trip, We stayed in both Sapporo (3 nights) and also at the Lodge at Kiroro (6 nights). Both offered opportunities to explore different culinary and cultural aspects of what Hokkaido has to offer. Highly recommended and we hope to return next year.

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

The view from Mt Okura Observatory is stunning, at night you can see the city lights spread out in front of you. The cable car was enjoyable. By the way, if you take the bus to the Observatory, make sure you know the time of the return bus, as taxis may be scarce.
