The landscape of Soya Hills, with its beautiful, gently rolling ridgelines, is designated as a Hokkaido Heritage site.
Standing on the slopes of these hills are about 60 giant windmills!
It's one of the best spots to fully enjoy the vast nature that is so characteristic of Hokkaido.✨

The view of about 300 plum trees lining the shore of Lake Toya, with the blue lake, Nakajima Island, and Mt. Yotei in the distance, is simply breathtaking!✨
The atmosphere completely changes between day and night, revealing a different kind of beauty.
You can also see cherry blossoms at around the same time, so be sure to visit Sobetsu for flower viewing next year!🌸
Blue Sky and Lake Onneto (Ashoro Town)
Lake Onneto, located within Akan Mashu National Park.
On a clear day, you can see Mt. Meakan and Mt. Oakan beautifully. The reflection on the lake's surface is also a stunning sight. I hope you can experience this wonderful moment that soothes the mind and body.

It can be a clear blue, emerald green, or even dark blue. Which color of Lake Onneto is your favorite?
There's an observation deck and a facility next to the campground offering drinks and snacks unique to Onneto, so you can enjoy a relaxing time here.♪
