What To Expect
Stop 1
⏱ 3hLake Toya (Touyako) is located in the southwest of Hokkaido and belongs to Shikotsu-Toya National Park. In the early 20th century, volcanic eruptions were frequent, and this lake was formed after it sank. The lake surface will not freeze in winter. It is the northernmost non-freezing lake in Japan, and the lake water ripples all year round.(Including the time spent on the SUV)
Stop 2
⏱ 2hIt is a crater relic in Noboribetsu City, Hokkaido, Japan, adjacent to Lake Toya. After the volcanic eruption, a strange valley was formed by molten rock; the gray and brown rock layers plus a lot of geothermal heat erupted from the ground, forming a special volcanic topography. There are more than a dozen hot springs here, each with its own characteristics, some are hydrogen sulfide water, some are salt water, and some contain iron. In particular, Noboribetsu Onsen, which is provided with water by Jigokudani, is about 200 meters above sea level and is a hot spring resort surrounded by primeval forests.
Stop 3
⏱ 2hShowa Shinzan is located in Sobetsu-cho, Usu-gun, Hokkaido, Japan, and belongs to Shikotsu-Toya National Park. It is formed by the accumulation of volcanic rocks from volcanic eruptions.
Stop 4
⏱ 3hIt is a freshwater lake located in Chitose City, Hokkaido. It is the second deepest lake in Japan and the eighth largest lake in terms of area. The water of Lake Shikotsu is pure, with an underwater visibility of more than 20 meters. There are many wild birds living on the lakeside, which is a popular local eco-tourism spot. There is a bear ranch on the nearby Sifangling, which raises more than 200 precious brown bears. Visitors can feed them freely and take photos in the park.(Including the time spent on the SUV)
