The Central Alps Komagatake Ropeway is a mountain ropeway that extends to the area known as "Senjojiki Cirque" directly below Mt. Hokendake.
The 950m elevation difference from the starting point Shirabidaira Station (1,662m) to the terminal Senjojiki Station (2,612m) is the greatest in Japan.
Furthermore, Senjojiki Station is the highest-altitude station in Japan.

The short, refreshing summer in the high mountains. In the mornings and evenings, cool air envelops the mountaintop.
The cirque area is a field of alpine flowers. Black lilies, small-flowered bellflowers, rock jasmine, hemlock, and mountain avens bloom with delicate blossoms.
Even in midsummer, the maximum temperature is around 20°C, making it a perfect season for hiking.
With easy access and a prime location surrounded by many mountains, it's a season that attracts many mountain enthusiasts, from beginners to advanced climbers.
