Mt. Moriyoshi
Known as one of Japan's greatest flower mountains due to the approximately 300 types of alpine plants that bloom there from early summer to autumn. In the winter, skiing and seeing the frost-covered trees ("snow monsters") are popular. They both can be easily enjoyed by riding the Ani Gondola.
