Mt. Okura Ski Jump Stadium (Ōkurayama-Schanze) is one of the oldest ski jump stadiums in Sapporo, Japan. Built in 1958, the stadium has hosted three Winter Olympic Events and served as training venue for professional ski jumpers.

The interior of the stadium has been renovated to usher in a more modern era, with several souvenir shops housed along the slopes. Ski jumpers and adventurous visitors can also take the lift up to the top and witness a breathtaking sunset. The stadium serves as a reminder of the major event that once graced Japan and continues to enthral visitors of all ages.
