Located at the midway point of the Kurumayama Highland lift, TOP’s 360° offers stunning views of the Yatsugatake Mountains. This cafe provides a convenient rest stop for those heading to the summit, especially since the summit lacks restroom facilities. Enjoy light meals, drinks, and soft-serve ice cream in a waffle cone while taking in the scenery. During the ski season, warm up with a hot drink and appreciate the snow-covered landscape from the window seats. Open for dining from 11:00 to 14:00 and as a cafe from 9:00 to 15:45, it's an ideal spot to relax before continuing your mountain adventure.
