Attraction introduction:
Route : Toyako Onsen-Showa Shinzan-Noboribetsu Jigokudani-Shikotsu Lake
Toyako: Toyako 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 sank and was formed. The lake does not freeze in winter and is the northernmost unfrozen lake in Japan. The lake is sparkling all year round.
Showa Shinzan: Showa Shinzan is located in Sobetsu Town, Usu County, Hokkaido, Japan, and belongs to Shikotsu-Toya National Park. It is formed by volcanic eruptions.
Noboribetsu Jigokudani: It is a crater relic in Noboribetsu City, Hokkaido, Japan, adjacent to Lake Toya. After the volcanic eruption, lava formed a peculiar valley; the gray-brown rock layer plus a large amount of geothermal heat gushed out from the ground, forming a special volcanic terrain. There are more than a dozen hot springs here, each with its own characteristics, some are hydrogen sulphide water, some are salt water, and some contain iron. In particular, Noboribetsu Onsen, which is fed by Jigokudani, is about 200 metres above sea level and is a hot spring resort surrounded by primeval forests.
Lake Shikotsu: It is a freshwater lake located in Chitose City, Hokkaido. It is the second deepest lake in Japan and the eighth largest lake in Japan. The water quality of Lake Shikotsu is pure, and the underwater visibility can reach more than 20 metres. Many wild birds live on the lakeside, which is a popular local eco-tourism attraction. There is a bear ranch on the nearby Sifangling, which raises more than 200 precious brown bears. Visitors can feed and take pictures freely in the park.
