Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium
大倉山ジャンプ競技場
The ski jump venue of the 1972 Sapporo Winter Olympics. Ride a chairlift to the top of the jump for a view of Sapporo from the jumper's perspective, with a Winter Olympics museum on site.
Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium lies on the west side of central Sapporo. It hosted the large hill ski jumping competition of the 1972 Sapporo Winter Olympics and remains a World Cup venue. Visitors can ride a two-person chairlift up to the observation platform at the top of the jump. From there, you can look down the steep jump from the jumper's perspective, with wide views over Sapporo and the Ishikari Plain. The Sapporo Winter Olympic Museum at the base offers simulated experiences, including ski jumping. The chairlift round trip costs about 1,000 yen, and the museum is charged separately. Service may be suspended on competition and training days, so check the official website. Getting there: take the subway to Maruyama-koen Station, then transfer to a bus for about 15 minutes.
