Riding the Hakkoda Ropeway
By Mandy Bartok
If you're ever in Aomori in northern Japan and are feeling a need for speed, try heading to Moya Hills! This local favorite ski resort, boasting affordable rates and slopes for all skier levels, also offers camping and barbecue events during the summer season. Buy a lift ticket and experience Hills Thunder, a three-wheeled white-knuckle thunderous ride down a winding concrete path .
Moya Hills is located just south of Aomori City at the foot of the Hakkoda Mountain Range. Information can be found on their official Japanese website, or on this English website.
