Mount Teine

Japanese: 手稲山 - ていねやま
Mount Teine

This mountain is located on the border between Nishi-ku and Teine-ku in Sapporo. It is 1,024 meters above sea level. It is one of the old volcanic belts of the Shiribeshi Volcano Group, and erosion has progressed, resulting in many slopes of varying degrees. At the 1972 Sapporo Olympics, it was the venue for skiing events such as the giant slalom. The facilities from that time are utilized, and courses for beginners and advanced levels are available. There is a road to the summit, where broadcasting stations for various broadcasting stations have been installed. There is a general leisure land near the foot of the mountain, and the swimming pool and golf course are used by local residents. There was once a mine owned by Mitsubishi Metals Co., Ltd., which produced gold, silver, copper, etc., but it closed in 1971. Currently, housing is being developed up to the foot of the mountain.
