Mt. Tsukuba is renowned for its magnificent natural scenery. While riding the cable car or ropeway, you can overlook the vast Kanto Plain with an excellent vantage point. From the summit, on clear days, you can even see Mt. Fuji, the Nikko mountain range, and the Pacific coastline. The changing seasonal vegetation along the route also adds different colors to the landscape.
Mt. Tsukuba has two main routes: the cable car on the Nantaisan side leads to near the Nantaisan summit, and the ropeway on the Nyotaisan side leads to near the Nyotaisan summit. The cable car travels at a faster speed, while the ropeway offers a more expansive view. Both routes allow you to easily reach the summit and explore the respective summit areas, enjoying beautiful scenery from different angles.
After reaching the summit, you can visit attractions such as Mt. Tsukuba Shrine and the Miyakohara Observatory. Additionally, Mt. Tsukuba boasts a rich network of hiking trails, ranging from simple walking paths to more challenging routes.

Mt. Tsukuba offers different beautiful scenery in every season. You can enjoy cherry blossoms in spring, lush greenery in summer, brilliant autumn foliage, and possibly snowscapes in winter.
