Myokokogen Skycable

The Myokokogen Skycable is a gondola style lift running up Mt. Myoko in Myoko City, Niigata Prefecture. It takes about 11 minutes to get to the top of the mountain at Myoko Highland at a height of 1,300 meters. From here huge panoramic views stretching from the Shiga and Nozawa mountains all the way to Mt. Madarao and Lake Nojiri can be enjoyed, while overlooking the beautiful Myoko countryside, magnificent in spring and autumn. From the station at the top of the mountain there are a number of walking paths to enjoy such as a walk through the beech forest or the scenic path with stunning views of the open countryside.
