Dogs are allowed riding on the Appi Kogen gondola. Dogs up to about the size of a golden retriever can fit in the space between the seats facing each other.
Sachiki-san didn't seem to like going into
the building where the gondola boarding area is. Because it was his first time
to enter such a building and there was a lot of noise from the machines. But he
was staying relaxed and calm on the gondola. Maybe it's because he is used to
be in my car.
The gondola kept moving slowly when getting
on and off, so I held Sachiki-san in my arms as we got on and off.
It takes approximately 15 minutes to reach
the mountaintop gondola station. The area around the station is called Sky
Area, where there is a dinosaur park, observatories and an athletics area, etc.
It's also good for walking with a dog.
Sachiki-san roared at the dinosaur that moved and made sounds. It's his first time seeing it.
There are wooden paths and stairs leading
up to the summit of Maemoriyama, making it easy to walk.
Mt. Iwate could be seen clearly from there.
Appi Kogen was originally a ski resort, but now it is called an all-season resort with various facilities, and even when there is no snow, the gondola operates, and this time I was able to ride it for half the price. Sachiki-san was for free.
