Otaru Tenguyama

Otaru Tenguyama is a compact ski area perched on Mount Tengu overlooking the historic port city of Otaru. With 6 courses and 3 lifts on a 362-meter vertical, it offers a charming small-resort experience. The highlight is the spectacular night view of Otaru city and its harbor, designated as one of Hokkaido's top three night views. Night skiing here is a truly memorable experience as you descend toward the twinkling city lights below.

While modest in size, Tenguyama has a long history and a loyal local following. The resort is perfect for a half-day of skiing combined with exploring Otaru's famous canal district, sushi restaurants, and glass-blowing workshops. Annual snowfall of approximately 7 meters provides reliable coverage through the season. The combination of ocean views, city lights, and snow-covered slopes makes Tenguyama a unique and photogenic ski experience.
