Lake Toya & Noboribetsu Hell Valley Day Tour

▲ Fukidashi Park. Kyogoku Fukidashi Park at the foot of Mount Yotei is located in Hokkaido, Japan, and is famous for the natural spring water formed by melted snow from Mount Yotei.

▲ Lake Toya Observatory. From the high vantage point, you can overlook the entire lake surface, seeing the island in the center and the distant mountains. The color of the lake changes with the weather, especially clear on sunny days. This is a classic lake view spot in Hokkaido. Visit Meisui Park + Lake Toya Observatory before the snow at the end of November; after snowfall, visit Lake Toya Observatory (snowmobile experience available in winter - at own expense).

▲ Lake Hill Farm. Experience a healing farm time at the oil-painting-like ranch at the foot of the mountain! Check in at the northern-style farm, sit by the floor-to-ceiling window, watch the summer flower fields turn into a purple mist, and the winter snowfields spread like icing sugar, with a distant view of "Ezo Fuji". It is recommended to try a freshly made ice cream, a specialty.

▲ Showa Shinzan Bear Ranch. Visit the brown bear colony at the foot of an active volcano! Watch the brown bears stand up their chubby bodies, their black eyes follow the apple in your hand, and their thick paws pat the snow fog to beg for food. If you rattle the feeding bucket, the bears will wave in unison, looking cute and adorable in the sunlight.

▲ Noboribetsu Jigokudani (Hell Valley). Explore the unique geothermal wonders of Hokkaido. Walk along the 600-meter-long wooden boardwalk, where the 450-meter-diameter crater remains emit sulfur steam, and the air is filled with a unique mineral smell, as if stepping into the "Gates of Hell", majestic and mysterious.
