The town of Niseko, Hokkaido is known for offering a variety of outdoor activities, including rafting and canoeing. In addition to these, why not also wake up in the hours before sunrise to catch a tethered hot air balloon ride? A popular activity that anybody can enjoy, from your tiniest tyke to your grandpa, the balloon leisurely ascends 30 meters into the refreshing morning air. As your balloon climbs, look over towards Mount Yotei and the Niseko mountain range to see the sun rising with you. Make sure to bring your camera for the sights of the beautiful sun-lit landscape!
