Overview

Ropeway over steaming volcanic vents with views across the Shimabara Peninsula.

An aerial ropeway ascending Mount Myoken in the Unzen volcanic range, passing over steaming sulfurous vents and azalea-covered slopes. The summit offers panoramic views of the Shimabara Peninsula, Ariake Sea, and on clear days, Kumamoto across the water.

Local tips

Combine with a walk through the Unzen Jigoku (hells) hot spring area at the base of the ropeway. Autumn foliage on the mountain slopes is spectacular in late October.
