How to Get There

By car, get off the Hokuriku Expressway at the Tonami Interchange and drive 20 minutes to Yumenotaira.
Beatuiful Blossoms
Yumenotaira serves as a ski field in the winter, but when October arrives, the verdant hillsides burst into bloom, turning the slopes white and pink. The one-week long Tonami Yumenotaira Cosmos event in early October offers a rare opportunity to see such a high concentration of the flowers in one place.
The lift offers sweeping views of Tonami—a city with a traditional atmosphere, and brightly-colored Cosmos flowers.
When to go
The event takes place from early to mid-October, typically the 8th to 16th, and is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Admission is free, but a return ticket on the lift costs 420 yen for adults and 210 yen for children of elementary school age and younger.
