Niseko

What is
the green
season?

Although Niseko is well known for its snow season during the winter, its green season is the ultimate escape from Japan’s humid summer weather. Niseko’s green season is all about relaxing in the surrounding nature while enjoying the best food and calming outdoor life. It’s the ideal time to experience the region’s natural beauty at its peak.

For outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers, Niseko offers a vibrant tapestry of scenic views and surrounding greenery. There’s a lot to do too, from beautiful hiking trails around Mount Yotei or Mount Appupuri to various outdoor adventures such as golf, horseriding, biking and even hot air balloon rides. Don’t forget to soak in one of many natural onsen (hot springs) in the area after your day out.

Of course, you have to try all the Hokkaido specialties. From fresh seafood to various rich dairy products, there’s a lot to savor while out and about. The delicious local cuisine served with the most amazing nature backdrop during the green season only elevates the experience.
