Rising from the forested hills of Miyanomori, Okurayama Viewing Point crowns the city’s most iconic ski jump—originally built for the 1972 Winter Olympics. Visitors take a chairlift to the top of the 133-meter jump, where a glass-enclosed observatory offers breathtaking views of the Sapporo basin, the distant Sea of Japan, and the surrounding mountains. The vastness of the slope below provides a humbling glimpse into the courage of competitive ski jumpers. At the base, the Sapporo Winter Sports Museum features interactive exhibits and memorabilia that showcase Hokkaido’s role in global winter sports. Whether visiting during winter’s powdery hush or the crisp clarity of summer, Okurayama captures the grandeur of northern Japan’s sporting legacy and natural beauty.
