• Farm Tomita - A must-visit destination in Furano! This farm has been cultivating lavender since 1958 and is now a traditional lavender field. It gained fame through the JR annual calendar when JR was known by a different name.

The farm is particularly stunning due to the seven colors of flowers that bloom together, creating a rainbow effect. These include purple lavender, white baby’s breath, orange California poppies, and more. This picturesque view is often what people remember most about Furano.

Just 4km from this farm is “Lavender East,” where fields of lavender stretch as far as the eye can see, offering a breathtaking sight. This spectacle is exclusive to July, so plan your visit accordingly.

Don’t forget to visit the gift shop to take some lavender home! It’s recommended to visit early in the morning for a peaceful experience.

• Ningle Terrace - Nestled in the forest near Shinfurano Prince Hotel, this shopping area consists of 15 log houses and is named after a dwarf from a storybook. Enjoy unique natural goods available only here while strolling through the forest.

Explore themed areas like “Owl’s Forest” for owl-themed products or “Glass House” for ice and snowflake items.

Visit “Chuchu’s House,” a cozy coffee shop, and “Paperwork House,” which sells handmade postcards. You can also create your own items, with candle making, instrument crafting, and paper crafts being particularly popular.

As the sun sets, the log houses and walkways are illuminated, creating a magical atmosphere. While you don’t need to stay overnight to enjoy this area, the hotel is highly recommended, complete with hot springs for relaxation after your adventures.

• Furano Cheese Craft Center - A paradise for cheese enthusiasts! The cheese here is crafted from the milk of cows grazing in Furano’s great outdoors. Visitors can watch the cheese-making process through glass windows.

On the second floor, discover the history of cheese production and the tools used. Experience milking a large mechanical cow! This is an educational and enjoyable experience not to be missed.

You can also try making your own cheese, ice cream, or butter by reserving in advance. This is a delightful experience for families and friends.

• Flower Land Kamifurano - These are Furano’s premier flower gardens. June to September is the best time to visit, as lupines, lavender, poppies, lilies, cosmos, marigolds, and sunflowers bloom in succession. The expansive gardens are perfect for a stroll, or you can join the tracker bus, a popular choice for over 300,000 visitors annually.

Engage in activities like making lavender pillows or flower-pressed postcards, enjoyable for all ages! The landscape’s beauty changes with the seasons, featuring asparagus in May to June, melon in July to September, and corn in August to September. There’s always delicious local food to savor. In the fall, enjoy all-you-can-eat potatoes and onions. Relish the gourmet delights and floral beauty of Hokkaido here!

• Furano Wine Factory - Besides its lavender, Furano is renowned for its wine. Established in 1972, the “Furano City Grape Research Institute” focuses on cultivating the finest grape varieties and producing exceptional wine.

The region’s land and climate are ideal for grape cultivation, resulting in some of the finest wines today.

At the red-brick wine factory, observe the production and fermentation processes. Of course, tasting is available. During grape blossom season, the area is beautifully illuminated. The shop offers a variety of wines, grape juices, and other gifts to take home.

• Shirogane Blue Pond - Experience the enchanting “blue world” created by nature. The “blue lake” lives up to its name, thanks to the aluminum from the Shirakane hot springs upstream. When sunlight hits the mixture, short blue lights scatter.

The view is most captivating on early sunny mornings, with pine trees enhancing the scenery. Over 1.5 million visitors come to witness this wonder each year. Winter light displays add to the magic. Enjoy nearby hot springs and the stunning views of the “blue lake” at night and morning.

• Zerubunoka Atomunooka - Biei offers numerous flower gardens, and this hill is named after the last letters of “wind,” “scent,” and “play.” The theme is “to play surrounded by the lovely scent of the wind.”

Flowering begins in May and continues through early October, featuring lavender, sunflowers, poppies, and more. Explore these gardens on foot or by cart.

Nearby, find the “Ken and Mary Tree,” famous from commercials. Don’t miss the restaurant, café, and unique gifts in the shop. It’s a perfect spot to take a break from driving!

• Shirahige Falls - Named for its resemblance to a white beard, this waterfall drops approximately 30 meters and is a highlight of ‘Biei Shirogane Onsen Town.’ Here, you can closely observe underground water seeping from natural rocks and cascading into the mountain stream, creating the cobalt blue Biei River.

This waterfall is a rare ‘submerged flow explosion’ in Japan. The view from the bridge, known as the ‘Blue River,’ is highly recommended.

In winter, the contrast between the waterfall’s streaks, snow, and rock surface becomes more pronounced, with spray and steam forming fog and ice on the trees, enhancing the magical scenery.
