When summer arrives, Niseko reveals a quieter side of the mountains. The air is cooler, the landscapes turn vibrant green, and the pace of the day begins to slow. It is a season shaped by fresh alpine air, open spaces and time spent outdoors.
From the heart of Hirafu, Chatrium Niseko Japan offers a thoughtful place to experience everything Green Season has to offer. Step outside to local cafés, restaurants and scenic trails, or simply take in the changing landscape with Mount Yotei never far from view.
Summer, at Its Own Pace
Green Season invites a different way of exploring Niseko. Spend the morning hiking through mountain trails, cycle quiet country roads, enjoy a round of golf surrounded by nature, or discover local flavours in Hirafu's cafés and restaurants.
There is no single way to experience summer here. The days unfold naturally, leaving room to choose your own pace.
Experience the Niseko Classic
Each summer, Niseko welcomes cyclists from around the world for the Niseko Classic, one of Japan's premier road cycling events and host of the 2026 UCI Gran Fondo World Championships. Riders take on courses that wind through rolling farmland, mountain roads and panoramic views of Mount Yotei, showcasing the beauty of Hokkaido's Green Season.
Whether you're taking part in the race or supporting family and friends, the event brings a distinctive energy to the region and offers a memorable way to experience Niseko in summer.
