Hokkaido's vast territories offer unique opportunities for winter activites. One of them is mushing - a ride on a dog sled that is common for the polar circle regions. This tour has been quickly gaining popularity in Japan as an unusual outdoor escapade. It's an experience that you will fully enjoy and never forget!
You will ride a dog sled with 6 to 8 well-trained and marvelous dogs across the breath-taking snow-covered Tokachi Plains. The Tokachi mountain range overlooking the plains contribute to creating a unique northern atmosphere that you are not likely to experience elsewhere in Japan.
Explore the beauty of one of Hokkaido's prettiest towns with this day tour. Otaru is just 30 minutes away by train from Sapporo. It's conveniently located on the way to Niseko so be sure to stop by and have a pleasant walk. Otaru town developed as the main harbor and trade center of Hokkaido during the first years of the island's reclamation.
Many beautiful warehouses along the quaint canal area remain and remind visitors about the town's role in the 19th century. Nowadays many of the historical buildings have been turned into attractive shops, craftsmen ateliers, and pleasant cafes.
Otaru also hosts the annual Festival of the Snow and the Candles which coincides with Sapporo's Snow Festival in February. A night visit to Otaru during the festival is considered one of the most romantic experiences in Japan.
