Tips
In late November, I went to Mt. Takao to see the autumn leaves. When I arrived around 11:00 a.m., the surrounding roads were a bit congested. We managed to park in a nearby parking lot and went through Omotesando Avenue to the Mt. We decided to take the lift (two-seater). We took the lift (two-seater) to the lift station, which was a rather steep staircase. The cable car station was crowded, but we were able to get on the lift right away. The lift is a great way to enjoy the ride as you feel the wind blowing in your face as you walk up into the surrounding nature (and of course the autumn leaves), so you can look around and enjoy the experience. I think it is cold in winter, but……children as young as 10 years old were also using the lift. On the way back, we took the cable car down the mountain, which was also a fun ride with a steep incline, and we were able to enjoy a ride that we normally cannot experience. The cable car was a bit crowded both ways.
