a roadtrip through hokkaido | from noboribetsu to furano, blue pond & quiet roads

A quiet roadtrip through Hokkaido’s landscapes. From volcanic valleys to wide countryside roads.

Starting at Lake Toya, we drive south to Noboribetsu to explore the dramatic scenery of Jigokudani (Hell Valley). On the way we stop at a small mountain stream before visiting the beautiful Lake Kuttara, one of Hokkaido’s clearest crater lakes.

The journey then continues across Hokkaido’s countryside towards Furano, known for its rolling fields and quiet rural roads. The next day we visit Farm Tomita, drive along the famous Rollercoaster Road, and stop at the surreal Shirogane Blue Pond in Biei.

Before returning to Sapporo, we make one final stop at the peaceful Sandan Falls.

This video is part of my Hokkaido travel series in northern Japan.
