The Nikkō Shiranesan Ropeway (日光白根山ロープウェイ, Nikkō Shiranesan Rōpuwei) is a Japanese aerial lift line in Katashina, Gunma, operated by Nippon Paper Development. Opened in 1950, the line climbs Mount Nikkō-Shirane, the tallest mountain in Kantō region. The line is mostly inside Malnuma Kōgen Ski Resort (丸沼高原スキー場). As such, it primary transports skiers, but it also opens in other seasons for tourists.
