Want to experience the thrill of walking amidst the clouds? The cloud sea platform at Hokkaido’s Hoshino Resorts Tomamu Resort is famous for letting visitors bathe up close in the cascading sea of clouds, attracting many tourists during its open season. Starting from September this year, a brand-new Cloud Sea Walk has been added, allowing people not just to admire the view from the sidelines but to truly experience the novelty of walking on clouds.

The newly added “Cloud Walk” in September stretches about 200 meters long and is deliberately designed with a wavy, cloud-like deck built along the slope. Walking on it, visitors can enjoy a 210-degree panoramic view of the majestic mountain scenery, and when the sea of clouds rolls in, it creates the surreal illusion of strolling above the clouds.

The best months to enjoy the spectacular sea of clouds are between May and October, with this year’s opening period ending on October 13. Depending on weather conditions, there is also a possibility that the sea of clouds may not be visible or the area may be closed. Visitors planning to go are advised to call the Unkai Dial hotline or check the official website of Hokkaido’s Hoshino Resorts Tomamu Resort for the day’s operating status and cloud sea viewing probability.
