Lake Toya and Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley Winter Tour from Hokkaido

Immerging yourself in the tranquil allure of a Japanese winter is made possible with a visit to Lake Toya. This striking destination is famed for its scenic, snow-draped landscape.

While at Lake Toya, seize the opportunity to go snowmobiling. This invigorating activity lets you dart across the snowy terrain, providing an exciting way to appreciate the winter spectacle. Snowmobiling is available at an additional cost and guarantees a memorable experience as you traverse the frosty landscape. You can also ascend to a viewing platform to soak in the scenery and unwind in a complimentary hot spring.

For a more peaceful and heartening experience, consider visiting the Showa Shinzan Bear Ranch. Here, you have the chance to meet charming bears. This delightful ranch offers a rare chance to observe and engage with these gentle creatures up close. Remember to secure your ranch ticket separately to partake in this extraordinary encounter.

Following this, explore the Valley, where remnants of volcanic craters formed by past eruptions create a distinctive landscape. A small hot spring is also available here for your enjoyment.

Lake Toya caters to all interests, whether you're entranced by the ice festival, thrilled by snowmobiling, or charmed by the bears. Make the most of your visit to this beautiful location and forge lasting memories amidst the snowy grandeur.
