The Happo-one Nature Study Trail offers a scenic trekking experience from the Happo-ike Sanso mountain hut to the stunning Happo Pond. Accessible via the Happo Alpen Line gondola and lifts, the trail presents breathtaking views of the Northern Alps and a chance to see diverse alpine flora. Choose between a well-maintained wooden path or a more rugged, rocky route. The hike to Happo Pond takes approximately 2 hours round trip, with some steep sections, so sturdy footwear is recommended. Visit during the summer months to witness the vibrant alpine flowers in bloom. Be prepared for changing weather conditions and bring a raincoat.
