- Attraction Introduction -

【Lake Shikotsu】

Lake Shikotsu is a crater lake with a shoreline of approximately 40 kilometers, surrounded by steep mountain ranges such as Mount Eniwa and Mount Tarumae. Reaching a depth of 360 meters, it is the second deepest lake in Japan, resulting in a rapid current. Even in the harsh winter, the lake hardly freezes, making it Japan's northernmost unfrozen lake. The central area for sightseeing around Lake Shikotsu is the Shikotsu Onsen area, which features onsen hotels, souvenir shops, and restaurants, serving as the main base for exploring the lake.

【Lake Shikotsu Ice Wave Festival】

Every year from late January to mid-February, Lake Shikotsu hosts a grand event called the "Chitose-Shikotsu Lake Ice Wave Festival," showcasing ice sculptures made from the clear, pristine waters of the lake. These ice sculptures are created by spraying the lake water with high-pressure water jets, causing it to freeze. During the day, the ice sculptures have a crystal-clear appearance and radiate a natural blue hue under the sunlight, which locals call "Shikotsu Blue."

Takino Suzuran Park

Experience thrilling tobogganing and snowshoeing while enjoying stunning snowscapes! This place boasts Japan's largest toboggan run, where you can slide vertically 200 meters from the top, and snowshoeing through the forest. Both activities are very popular with international tourists, and you can rent the necessary equipment for free! Furthermore, don't miss the spectacular sight of Asiri Bez Falls, which freezes over from late December!

【Mitsui OUTLET PARK】

It brings together high-quality brand stores from home and abroad, including various specialty stores such as fashion, sports, children's products, and drugstores, to meet your diverse needs. Whether you are in the suburbs, a shopping mall, or the city, there are approximately 70 shopping centers located in various tourist attractions across the country.

Hokkaido Pioneer Village

Hokkaido Pioneer Village is an outdoor museum themed around "recreating life during the pioneering era of Hokkaido." The park covers a large area and is set against the backdrop of Hokkaido during the Meiji and Taisho periods. It has authentically restored more than 50 historically valuable buildings, including farmhouses, shops, schools, horse-drawn carriages, railway tracks, and fishing village houses, making it feel like stepping into a time tunnel from a hundred years ago.
