Hi Guys, me and my wife will be making our way up to Aomori towards the end of September and I am having a little trouble with our itinerary so I would like to ask for some help.
Day 1 – Take a train from Tokyo to Aomoriya Hoshino Resort Onsen and stay there for the night.
Day 2 – Checkout by 9:00 and travel to Aomori City, leave our bags at the hotel and take a train to Hirosaki to see the sights – Castle, Gardens, Apple park. Then get back to Aomori in the evening for a nice dinner somewhere (any recommendations?).
Day 3 – Aomori Nokkedon for breakfast, followed by a trip out to Hakkoda Ropeway for 2-3 hours of hiking and returning to Aomori for a visit to the nebuta museum and A Factory with another pleasant dinner somewhere.
Day 4 – wake up and make our way back early in the morning.
Days 1 and 2 can’t be changed but I would love to get your thoughts on days 2 and 3 and whether this is an ok itinerary. Also I would love to get 2 decent food spots for dinner in Aomori city.
\*Oh also one thing that I am not sure of is how hard it is to get back to the city from the Hakkoda hiking, the public transport readily available?

For dinner find the izakaya with giant masks out front, it’s an amazing experience. I was only there in Winter but Hakkoda felt like it was about 45min outside of town.
