Description

Discover the natural beauty of Hokkaido on a day trip from Sapporo. Explore the geothermal terrain of Noboribetsu Jigokudani, visit Showa Shinzan, and enjoy the views from Seru Observatory.
Begin your journey with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Sapporo Chuo Ward, or meet at the North Exit of Sapporo Station. Set off on a scenic drive to your first stop, Noboribetsu Jigokudani, known for its rust-red rock walls and constant sulfur mist. Walk along fog-shrouded trails and experience the raw volcanic power of the earth up close.

Next, head to Showa Shinzan, where you can choose between two unique experiences. Ride the Usuzan Ropeway for bird’s-eye views of active volcanic lava domes and the full panoramic vista of Lake Toya, or visit the bear ranch to feed adorable Hokkaido brown bears up close for a heartwarming and fun animal encounter.

Afterward, stroll along the shore of Lake Toya, Japan’s northernmost ice-free lake. Surrounded by rolling mountains, its crystal-clear waters offer tranquil, calming scenery. Cap off the trip at Seru Observatory, which delivers unobstructed sweeping views of the entire lake and mountain range.
