Shikisai-no-Oka (四季彩の丘), Biei, Hokkaido
Shikisai-no-Oka, or "Hill of Seasonal Colors," is a spectacular flower park located in Biei, Hokkaido. Spanning over 15 hectares, the park is famous for its beautifully arranged flower fields that bloom in vibrant rows from spring through autumn. Visitors can stroll through colorful carpets of tulips, lavender, sunflowers, and more, each section creating a stunning rainbow-like landscape against the backdrop of Biei’s rolling hills.
Beyond walking paths, the park also offers scenic tractor rides and seasonal activities, making it a favorite for families and photographers. With panoramic views, peaceful surroundings, and ever-changing floral displays, Shikisai-no-Oka is a must-visit destination for nature lovers exploring Hokkaido.
The Blue Pond in Biei, Hokkaido, is a mesmerizing natural wonder known for its striking turquoise-blue water and surreal atmosphere. Formed by the construction of a dam to protect nearby areas from volcanic erosion, the pond’s vivid color is caused by natural minerals in the water, which reflect sunlight in a unique way.
Adding to its beauty are the bare larch and birch trees that stand mysteriously in the water, creating a dreamlike, almost otherworldly scene that changes with the seasons. Whether enveloped in mist or glowing under clear skies, the Blue Pond offers a tranquil, photogenic experience that has become one of Hokkaido’s most iconic sights.
Shirahige Falls, meaning "White Beard Falls," is a stunning waterfall located in the hot spring town of Shirogane Onsen in Biei, Hokkaido. The falls get their name from the way the water cascades down the cliff face like a flowing white beard, emerging gently from between gaps in the rock rather than from a single stream.
Set against a backdrop of forested cliffs and often accompanied by mist rising from the hot spring-rich river below, Shirahige Falls offers a serene and majestic view year-round. In winter, the scene becomes even more enchanting, with frozen landscapes and illuminated displays. Easily viewed from the nearby Blue River Bridge, the falls are a perfect photo stop and a peaceful complement to a day exploring Biei's natural wonders.
Farm Tomita is one of Hokkaido’s most iconic flower farms, located in the town of Furano. Famed for its breathtaking lavender fields, the farm offers stunning views of purple blooms stretching across gentle hills, especially during peak season in July. In addition to lavender, the farm features a variety of seasonal flowers arranged in vibrant rows, creating a vivid, ever-changing landscape.
Visitors can stroll through the fields, enjoy panoramic views of the Tokachi Mountain Range, and sample local specialties like lavender soft-serve ice cream and melon bread. The farm also has gift shops offering handmade lavender products, making it a perfect spot for souvenirs. Farm Tomita is a must-visit destination for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking the floral beauty of Hokkaido.
