Mt. Tarumae: Hike the Lava Dome & Catch Shikotsu-ko Views
★0.0(0)
Skip the technical gear; this is an accessible climb if you have decent shoes. The hour-long ascent brings you face-to-face with an active, steaming lava dome that looks like a sci-fi set. Winds get wild at the ridge, so bring an extra layer even in July. Park at the 7th station to cut out the boring part. If it’s cloudy, stay home. Otherwise, the volcanic crater rim view is worth every drop of sweat.
Address: Shikotsu-Toya National Park, Tomakomai, Hokkaido, 059-1265
