Niseko in Summer

The alpine summer in Hokkaido is a sight to see when it transforms from winter wonderland to the rich summery green. With a bourgeoning summer activity schedule there is something for everyone.

Hokkaido’s summer weather is popular for mainland Japanese tourists; with only 5% of Japan’s population living on the island; it is a priority summer holiday destination. Domestic tourists account for the majority of the summer visitors.

If you’re here for the autumn change then you will be in for a beautiful scene, as green turns to autumn golds, browns, yellows and oranges it is a sight to see.
