Mount Moiwa is one of several forested, small mountains surrounding the city of Sapporo. There is an observation platform and restaurant on its summit with spectacular day and night time views of the city.
Note that the restaurant on top of Mount Moiwa is not a place for fine dining as suggested by the restaurant's pamphlet. Rather, it is a kind of tourist cafeteria, where meals have to be ordered at vending machines.

By public transport
From Susukino, take Sapporo's only streetcar line to "Ropeway Iriguchi" station (20 minutes, 170 yen). From there, the lower station of the Mount Moiwa Ropeway can be reached in a five minute walk. The five minute ropeway ride is followed by a short, free shuttle bus ride to the summit. A round trip costs 1100 yen.
