The area around the foot of Mt. Shigaku is being developed as an outdoor activity zone. Mt. Chokai can be seen from Mt. Shigaku, which is 563 meters above sea level, and the ski slopes at the ski resort are generally short, but there are steep and gentle slopes, making it enjoyable for the whole family, from advanced skiers to beginners. There is one bowler lift. There is also a 2.5km cross-country course.
