Noboribetsu Jigokudani, also known as Hell Valley, is a famous volcanic valley located in Noboribetsu, Hokkaido, Japan. It is renowned for its otherworldly landscape of steaming vents, sulfurous streams, and rugged terrain. Visitors can explore walking paths amidst the geothermal activity.
Lake Toya Onsen Town Lake Toya Onsen is celebrated for its serene setting alongside Lake Toya, one of the country's most picturesque caldera lakes. The onsen town is where visitors can unwind in mineral-rich hot spring foot baths while enjoying breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding mountains. It's a perfect destination for relaxation and rejuvenation amidst nature's beauty.
Showa-shinzan
It is a volcano that has been certified as a "UNESCO Global Geopark" in many categories, and is also called the Miracle Mountain'' due to its unusual origin.
Showa-shinzan Bear Farm (Optional) A popular spot where you can meet powerful bears, mainly brown bears. You can feed them apples and cookies and be soothed by the cute behavior of the cubs.
Usuzan Ropeway (Optional) Enjoy a 6-minute walk in the air while taking in the spectacular views from Lake Toya to Mt. Yotei. At the Mt. USU Terrace at the summit station, which opened in 2021, you can now relax and enjoy the spectacular view from a sofa or cafe.
Silo observation deck
A spectacular view point with a panoramic view of the sparkling blue Lake Toya. The most popular item at the souvenir shop is Silo Observatory's original Toyako Caramel Pudding'', which has a sweet caramel flavor and a smooth, creamy texture.
We recommend a plan that includes tickets to the bear farm and Mt. Usu Ropeway! You can purchase them on-site, but you can save money by purchasing them at the time of booking your tour!
