SPOT
Lavender fields in summer, ski resort in winter
It is a symbol of the town that can be enjoyed throughout the year; in summer it is a relaxing hill surrounded by colorful flowers, and in winter it is a snow-white slope where skiers gather.
[Summer] "Kitaseiyama Lavender Garden"
Take a 7-minute lift to the top of Mount Hokusei while gazing down at the fields of three types of lavender and vibrant annual flowers. You can enjoy the typical Nakafurano scenery of the Tokachi mountain range and the rural landscape. It is also the venue for the Lavender Festival and Fireworks Display, a festival that marks the beginning of summer in the Furano region.
[Winter] Hokusei Ski Resort
Part of the slope is left ungroomed, so you can enjoy a mini backcountry feel on the slopes the morning after it snows. The winter ski lifts are usually open from the second week of January to early March, depending on the amount of snow.
