[2025 Otaru Attraction] Travel Guide for Tenguyama Observation Deck (Updated Mar)

Tengu Mountain is really good for taking photos Hokkaido in winter is indeed a romantic place It is recommended to visit Hokkaido in winter to feel the winter atmosphere! We drove up the mountain by ourselves, and we thought we could drive directly to Tengu Mountain, everyone! ! ! ! It is not possible❌😂 We couldn’t go any further halfway, so we asked a Japanese uncle who was doing construction work on the roadside🧍♂️, and he said we had to go to the cable car🚡 station to get to Tenguyama (for those who didn’t do the work). Tengu Mountain, located in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, is a famous mountain climbing spot popular among tourists for its magnificent natural scenery and rich cultural history. The highest peak of Tenguyama is about 1,000 meters, and the mountain is covered with dense forests and diverse plants. The hiking trails are suitable for climbers of all levels, and you can enjoy the changing beauty of the four seasons along the way. However, the cable car is recommended in winter! Tengu Mountain is famous for its connection with the Japanese Tengu legend. Tengu is a Japanese monster usually depicted as a creature with bird features and closely associated with mountainous and forested environments. Locally, Tengu Mountain is regarded as a sacred place, attracting many believers and tourists. We also visited the temple and prayed. There is an observation deck at the top of the mountain, which offers spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding city and mountains on a clear day. In addition, there are some rest areas and picnic areas on the mountain, suitable for family and friends gathering. Fortunately, there is a heater in the room, so I blow on my hands, otherwise I would be freezing to death🥶 But I really enjoyed my trip to Hokkaido! The white snow is so beautiful😍 #GlobalTravel #TravelGuide #JapanTravelGuide #Hokkaido

#MarchTravelSupportEvent #OtaruWinterTravel #TenguMount #TenguMountSkiResort The cable car to TenguMount Observatory is not in operation due to bad weather Instead, we went to the TenguMount Ropeway to find the place where the first scene of Love Letter was filmed while getting hit by a snowstorm You can take a bus from Otaru Station, but you can also walk for an hour and a half to get there.

We took the gondola up Mt. Tengu, enjoying the peaceful ride as Otaru gradually came into view. The lush forests below gave way to the city, with its canals and harbor becoming clearer as we ascended. At the top, the panoramic view was stunning—Otaru spread out beneath us, framed by the Sea of Japan and surrounding mountains. It was a breathtaking sight, a perfect blend of nature and cityscape that made the trip unforgettable. #magicalxmastrip #travel #hokkaido #couplestrip

🏠 Otaru Tengu Mountain 🚩 2 Chome-16-15 Mogami, Otaru, Hokkaido 047-0023 Japan ⏰ Every day, 9:00 AM - 9:00 PM 📝 Otaru is beautiful at any time, but if you go in February, the whole world is covered in snow. I visited Otaru's Tengu Mountain, where you can see Otaru covered in snow the best. You have to take the ropeway to get up, and it's a little colder, but you can step on snow that you've never stepped on before, and it's a beautiful place where snow is everywhere. #SnowFlowerTravel
