Hakodate
Ropeway |
 |

|
Fully
wheelchair accessible.
A lift takes visitors from the lobby to the platform. Wheelchair
users can get on and off big flat gondolas. Enjoy the great night or sunset view of
Hakodate. The ropeway station
is located on a hill. Very hard for wheelchair users to go up the
hill. Taking a taxi is the best way to go to the station if there
is no no low floor bus.

Onuma
Park |
|
|
|
20km
north of Hakodate. Nice lakes and forest. Most of the roads in the
park are very flat. Steep ramps are placed on bridges. Although many trails are not paved and
full of stones and trees, it is possible to enjoy adventure on

wheelchair accessible.
