Rishiri Fuji (Mt. Rishiri)
The Majestic Peak of the North
Experience the breathtaking "Rishiri Fuji"—a stunning volcanic icon rising 1,721 meters above the sea.
Mt. Rishiri is the defining symbol of Rishiri Island. This 1,721-meter peak is famous for its elegant silhouette, with slopes that sweep down directly to the ocean. Its sheer beauty makes it one of the most striking sights in northern Japan.
Standing as the northernmost peak among Japan’s famed “100 Famous Mountains,” Mt. Rishiri offers an unparalleled 360-degree panorama. From the summit, you can look down at the island's circular coastline and see Rebun Island and the Hokkaido mainland across the water. The feeling of the fresh breeze and the endless horizon creates a moment of pure freedom reserved for those who take on the climb.
The mountain is also a treasure trove of rare alpine flowers, such as the Rishiri-hinageshi (Rishiri poppy), which bloom uniquely among the rocks. Whether you choose to hike to the top or explore the base to find your favorite view, the mountain’s many faces are captivating. From the first light of dawn to the soft glow of dusk, the silhouette of Mt. Rishiri will remain an unforgettable highlight of your journey through Hokkaido.
