Adult fare : 1,600 Kids 6 years and up : 800 To go here, if you're from JR Toya Muroran: Take Donan Bus to Toyako Onsen (15 minutes) At Toyako Onsen, take Taxi, cost 2,000 and about 10 minutes drive. Bus from Toyako Onsen to Usuzan only available from end April to end October. Starting November until April, bus is not operated. The view from up here is stunning. Breathtaking. The picture just don't do enough justice. Once you go up, apart from the picturesque view, there will be hiking trails where you can see larger crater. The walking trail is closed from November to April. Still you can see the crater's smoke. Beautiful! There was also souvenir shop, waiting area with seating and toilets up here. What makes our visit more interesting was there was video sharing about the history of Usuzan and volcanoes nearby including Nakajima Island and Lake Toya itself. It helped us appreciate more about the nature. After the visit, we go down and found a room that offer us to feel a little bit about how it feels during Usuzan eruption. This place is great with toddlers. We brought 4 kids - 6 months baby, 3 years old, 5 years old, 7 years old. Our kids love the hiking part where there were also hiking stick for free available at the beginning of the track. It is made from wood.

Many active volcanos in this area and if you are adventurous, you can try taking the cable up the mount Usu for a day hiking around the volcano.
So very beautiful in autumn ️
Take the ropeway and get treated to amazing views of Lake Toya, if you are up for a little walk there is a rather steep trail which will take you to the crater, long trail but rewarding! There's a shrine too along the way
Great experience on rope way. Amazing view can be seen while going to the mountain.
