Pets are allowed on the site, however, we request that pets are kept inside a pet carrier which completely hides the pet (including the pet’s head and face) when visiting on-site facilities (including the Peak Observation Deck) or when using any of the lifts. When outdoors, you may take your pet out of its carrier, but please be certain to always use a leash.
We ask for your kind understanding that pets are not allowed inside the restaurant.

You can pay with a credit card at the ticket windows at Sanroku and Chufuku Stations of the Ropeway, as well as at the Mt.

However, payments can only be processed as one-time payments (It is not possible to split payments over multiple months). Please note that the ticket vending machines at the Chufuku and Sancho Stations only accept cash.
