The park also features traditional games, souvenir shops, and local delicacies, making it an ideal destination for families and culture enthusiasts seeking in-depth exploration!

Noboribetsu Hell Valley
This itinerary offers two options: visit Noboribetsu Date Jidai-mura to experience the atmosphere of the Edo period; or choose to visit Noboribetsu Jigokudani (approximately 60 minutes) to enjoy the breathtaking scenery of volcanic eruptions and boiling springs up close.
Jigokudani (Hell Valley) is home to more than ten different types of hot springs, earning it the nickname "a department store of hot springs" due to its diverse variety. The surrounding air is filled with a strong sulfurous smell, creating a fantastical scene reminiscent of hell.

Lake Toya Hot Spring Street
Enjoy a leisurely lunch at the hot spring resort on the shores of Lake Toya. Complimentary foot baths and hand baths are available nearby, allowing you to relax and rejuvenate during your trip. We recommend bringing your own towels, especially in winter, as a warm soak in the hot springs is incredibly soothing and comforting. On a clear day, you might even catch a glimpse of Mount Yotei, known as "Ezo Fuji," adding a breathtaking view to your journey!

【Cerulean Observatory】
Located on the western shore of Lake Toya, the Seru Observatory offers a superb vantage point for admiring the stunning scenery of the lake and mountains! Here, you can not only feast your eyes on the magnificent view of Lake Toya interwoven with the surrounding mountains, but also satisfy your culinary cravings – a complete selection of Hokkaido's specialty foods are available. From rich cream and creamy yogurt made with fresh milk to the popular balloon milk pudding, there's also a wide variety of souvenirs to choose from, ensuring your Hokkaido trip is truly memorable!

【Magari Village】
Nestled in the Goshi region of Hokkaido, this tranquil village nestles at the foot of Mount Yotei, seemingly guarding a secret garden that is considered "Hokkaido's Fuji." Its pristine natural environment makes it an exceptional spot for appreciating Mount Yotei.
As the seasons change, the scenery transforms like a palette of colors from nature: cherry blossoms bloom in spring, lush greenery abounds in summer, fiery red leaves blaze in autumn, and snow blankets the landscape in winter, creating a scene reminiscent of a fairytale.
Magari Village not only attracts travelers with its picturesque scenery, but also preserves traditional Japanese architecture and a simple lifestyle, making people feel as if they have boarded a time train and quietly returned to the past to experience the most authentic charm of rural Hokkaido.

【Makari Shrine】
Nestled at the foot of Mount Yotei, this shrine is like a tranquil corner forgotten by time. Surrounded by lush greenery and filled with a refreshing natural atmosphere, it is a hidden gem that combines Hokkaido's rural beliefs with stunning scenery.
As you stroll along the approach, the wooden torii gates and simple shrine buildings appear even more serene and solemn against the backdrop of the magnificent mountain scenery. On a clear day, the snow-capped Mount Yotei in the distance resembles a natural painting, attracting countless photography enthusiasts to stop and capture its beauty.
Here, there is no urban hustle and bustle, only a tranquil atmosphere intertwined with nature, which makes people unconsciously slow down and quietly feel a moment of peace for their souls.

【Famous Water Park】
The crystal-clear underground springs flow year-round, their water sweet and pure, earning it the title of "Pearl of the Water" in Hokkaido. Strolling along the park's trails, accompanied by the gentle sound of flowing water, one can look up and gaze at the majestic Mount Yotei in the distance. The mountains and water complement each other, weaving together a vast and tranquil natural landscape that is truly unforgettable.
