Mountain sightseeing road in the sky
Zao High Line is a 2.5-kilometer mountain toll road diverging from the Zao Echo Line. It is possible to enjoy the different scenery in each of the four seasons, such as a snow cloister in spring, new green leaves with a fresh breeze in summer, and colorful fall colors in autumn. On sunny days, you can see a brightly-colored emerald green crater lake called “Okama,” a symbol of Zao, located a few minutes walking distance from the parking lot on the mountaintop.

After the winter closure is lifted, as a specialty of early spring, you can drive between the snow walls that lined from Zao Echo Line to Zao High Line. Only during this period, you can enjoy the snow and cherry blossoms at the same time.
