Above It All

This week’s photo was taken from the summit of Mt. Annupuri—about a 20-minute walk above the top lift.It’s not the easiest climb, especially in ski boots, but the reward is beyond words. From up here, the view stretches endlessly: the Niseko Range, Mt. Yotei, and the quiet beauty of Hokkaido in every direction.

For those who love adventure, this is where it begins. The summit offers more than just a view—it’s the gateway to off-piste terrain, untouched snow, and that feeling of freedom that only the mountains can give.

If you ever find yourself in Niseko, take the time to make the climb. It’s a challenge worth every step.And if you need advice, guidance, or a private guide to lead the way—we’re always here to help.

Because the best part of Niseko isn’t just what you see from the top—it’s the journey you take to get there.
