Enjoy a casual trip to view the frost-covered trees on the lift and buggy cruise. When you think of winter in Zao, you think of frost-covered trees. If you take the lift, you can enjoy the sight of the frost-covered trees growing larger as the altitude increases, and after getting off the lift, you can enjoy the spectacular view of the frost-covered trees spreading out as far as the eye can see. On the way back, take the buggy cruise down the mountain. If you ride a large sled pulled by a large buggy, you can feel the refreshing breeze on the slopes while keeping an eye on the skiers as you go, and enjoy the spectacular panoramic view of the Asahi mountain range. For lunch, enjoy your favorite menu at the Liza Restaurant.
