Top 24 things to do and attractions in Kamishihoro-cho

This is far from most other places. But trust me, MAKE THIS DRIVE HERE. This place is beautiful. The view is beautiful. The air is fresh, the setting is perfectly made. It's not a highland farm per se so it's a bit of poor labelling. It's a place to see an amazing view of Hokkaido. There's ample parking. Ice cream, small restaurant with some mains like burgers / sandwiches here. Mainly beautiful views Man, Japan is something else....

Beautiful view and the food is a must try! The hamburger was great and the Dark chocolate-vanilla mix ice cream was divine!

Beautiful views in a relaxing and serene setting. We had their ice cream, burger, and milk. All of which we enjoyed. Highly recommend stoping over here if it is on the way for you( and even if it is not).

Wow. If you are looking for a peaceful outdoor experience unmarred by the hustle and bustle of civilization and breath taking views, This is the place. Grassy hills and random rocks litter the area and is a nice way to stretch the legs and take in the scenery. If you are hungry, or craving a small snack, a restaurant sells lunch items near by. Food is great anywhere you go when in japan so i wouldn't fret on what to get. It's all good. I recommend getting the chocolate and vanilla mixed soft serve and potato fries.

Huge farm land. Great view from terrace. A pity that the constant loud announcements of the numbers when food is ready really disturbs the peace of the place. I found it annoying. Good hamburger and ice cream

Wasn't able to see anything due to the fog. Should be quite nice when there is no fog.

Came here at 11.30am but cow went to pastures, not sure when they will be back

Lake Kunabira is incredibly beautiful, but what's even more special is its captivating bridge, practically submerged in the summer and only visible in the winter. From the signposted viewpoint on the main road, walk about 200 meters through the primeval forest to reach the lake. The entire forest is filled with the breath of nature, and gazing at the mysterious bridge from the lakeside is so enchanting that we wouldn't have left if the repeated roars of bears hadn't drawn us to the road.

Beautiful scenery around an old railroad bridge. With the construction of the Nukabira Dam, the bridge became submerged for part of every year. It's now falling apart, and part of the bridge is likely to fall down in the next few years.

Nice looking old bridge. We saw it from the opposite side of the lake. There was a car park on route 273 and a short walk to the riverside where you can get a good view.

Walk on the lake to there !

Incredible place. However be careful with the route around the lake in the forest which it shown on google maps: It exists only on the map.

Beautiful landmark, in a quiet location with little to no tourists.

The bridge can be seen only when the water level goes down. Visit in Winter.

Amazing views, weather is excellent 👌 Have to stay here for at least a night

Passed by this lake while driving through to Taushubestu River Bridge and was not disappointed. Was pleasantly surprised to see such a wonderful and beautiful lake that I have to stop and admire the view.

Lake Shikaribetsu is a beautiful high altitude natural lake. It’s protected so there is no development except for the onsen and a campground. The lake water is clear and the mountains rise up in all directions.

If you love natural surround you, しかりべつ湖 always not let you despair!

Beautiful lake, even better if you take someone to do the rowing ..

Nice place to stay in and out of the city.We went here during winter festival.

I don't imagine to go there by my Honda Fit, not 4WD, just FF. If weather is fine, you can access here easily by car. I went there in the begining of February. It is mid-winter in Hkkaido. Lake Shikaribetsu has a snow and ice festival in this time. You can stay in the ice hotel and enjoy ice bar on the lake. Also they have a hot spa on the lake. Tkis is the really special hot spa you can enjoy only in this period. That's a terrific experience you'll ever have.

This place is fantastic! We enjoyed the nature of Hokkaido very much and visiting this nature centre was a great experience. There're different exhibitions that go from geology, flora and fauna. The exhibition of lepidoptera and beetles was amazing!! They have a map of brown bear sightings in the area. The staff was friendly and kind. They told us that we could see the shimaenaga on the trail behind the building and we did it! So it's also recommended for birdwatching.

It was excellent place for kids and family to learn the nature of that area. The centre is a data base/library of nature and creatures by presenting in graphics and specimens. Very impressive and worth to stay at least an hour or more if time is available.

This place has over 1000 specimens and a wealth of resources including very helpful staff. You can reserve bicycle rental online too. A must-stop!

Of all visitor centres I have been to, this is one of the best due to its huge trove of information and frankly for a non insect enthusiast, I am impressed by the insect specimens ranging from butterflies, beetles and more!

Higashitaisetsu Nature Centre offers immersive exhibits on local wildlife, stunning mountain views, and interactive learning experiences. It’s a perfect spot to connect with nature and learn about Hokkaido’s unique ecosystem.

Detailed exhibits, interesting information and a great Blackiston's Fish Owl display. Who knew the biggest owl in the world calls Hokkaido home?! Highly recommended.

Very impressive place for the information. All good detail. Staff was very helpfully. Please come and visit this place. Highly recommend.

We could only view it from a distance - there was no actual route to get down to the lake. Seems like we were the only ones there as well and it would not have felt safe to get down to lake during middle of March with no clear directions/pathway. Others who arrived shortly after left within minutes as well. Quite a long drive to get here too - not sure what to see and the cellphone signal is bad too. There was a cafe nearby in the town where we could view the lake but ultimately it was inaccessible to get down & cafe is only open during summer times.

(Translated by Google) During the coldest months, the area freezes completely, making it a popular place for activities such as fishing for smelt and visiting the Taushubetsu River Bridge. Of course, you can also see ice bubbles inside the ice. For the 2023-2024 season, the lake has been declared safe from freezing on January 2, 2024, so many people have been visiting since that day, as if they were waiting for that. To access the lake during the coldest months, park your car on the roadside near the Gonosawa bus stop and follow the beast road near the stream where the Shihoro Line Gonosawa Bridge ruins are located to reach the lake. Depending on the snow conditions, I got the impression that it was possible to walk on the lake surface even without snowshoes or snowshoes. However, it is a bit slippery, so it might be a good idea to use some simple crampons. The surface of the lake is windswept and -10 degrees Celsius is warm during the coldest months? It can get cold at a very low level, so you need to be careful and careful about how to protect yourself from the cold. Snow mountain equipment is required. Also, if it's sunny, I'll get snowy eyes if I don't wear eyewear. Also, if you want to watch Ice Bubble during the snowy season, you'll need something like a deck brush! (Original) 厳寒期は全面凍結し、ワカサギ釣りやタウシュベツ川橋梁を見に行くアクティビティで賑わう場所です。もちろん氷の中にはアイスバブルも見ることができる。2023～2024年シーズンは2024/01/02から湖面の凍結安全宣言が出ているのでそれを待っていたかのように多くの人が当日から足を運んでいる。 厳寒期のアクセスは五ノ沢のバス停付近の路肩に車を止めて、士幌線五の沢橋梁跡がある沢に近い獣道地を伝って湖面に出ます。積雪の状況にもよりますがスノーシューや輪かんじきがなくとも湖面を歩くことはできた印象です。ただそこそこ滑るので簡易アイゼン的なものはあってもいいかもしれない。湖面は吹きさらし、厳寒期は-10℃があったかい方？なレベルで冷えるので防寒は入念に入念を重ねることが求められる。雪山装備必須です。あとは晴れたらアイウェアもないと雪目になる。あとはアイスバブルを積雪期に観たいのでしたらデッキブラシ的なやつ必須ですよ！

(Translated by Google) An artificial lake in Nukabira Onsenkyo, Kamishihoro Town. It is a reservoir lake created on the Otofuke River by the Nukabira Dam. It is famous for the Taushubetsu River Bridge. As time passes, weathering progresses, making it a scenic spot that can never be seen again. In addition to Nukabira Onsen, river fish such as smelt and yamame salmon are released into the lake, making it a popular tourist spot for fishing enthusiasts. As it is located in the mountains, bears may appear, so please be careful. (Original) 上士幌町ぬかびら温泉郷にある人工湖。 糠平ダムによって音更川に出来たダム湖です。有名なのはタウシュベツ川橋梁。年月と共に風化が進み来る度に二度と見られない景勝地となっています。糠平温泉に加えワカサギやヤマメなどの川魚が放流され釣り好きの人にも人気の観光スポットです。山の中にあるため熊が出没するので十分注意してください。

(Translated by Google) When I visited on October 4th, the autumn leaves 🍁 were at their peak! I was surprised to see so many deer 🦌 walking around the park at Lake Nukabira, but they were so cute. (Original) 10月4日に伺ったら紅葉🍁が見頃でした！糠平湖の公園には鹿が沢山🦌普通に歩いてて驚きましたが、とても可愛いかったです。

(Translated by Google) The image was taken on January 20th of this year. It was a warm winter this year, and I couldn't go on the lake on January 31st. Also, the ice bubbles were covered in snow, so I couldn't look for them on my own...I dug them earlier. You can just see the ice bubbles after people clear the snow...I think it would be a good idea to flag the areas where the ice bubbles are appearing before the snow piles up. If you could see Mott Ice Bubbles in ice machines at skating rinks, more tourists would come... (Original) 画像は今年の1月20日に撮影した画像です　今年は暖冬で1/31で湖上にいけなくなってしまいました　またアイスバブルは雪が積もっていて自力で探すことはできず・・前に掘った人が雪をどけた後にあるアイスバブルを見ることができるくらいです・・雪が積もる前にアイスバブルが出でいる所をフラッグを立ててくれればイイと思います。スケート場の製氷機でモットアイスバブルが見れるようになれば観光客もっとくるのに・・ざんねんです

(Translated by Google) It's a place I always pass by Perfect for relaxing It might be nice to relax in the footbath and drink coffee from the shop next door. It would have been better if there was beer The iron bridge feels ephemeral. Deer were playing in Lake Nukabira (Original) いつも通り過ぎる場所ですが のんびり過ごすには最適です 足湯でまったり横の店の珈琲飲むのは良いかも ビールがあればもっと良かった 鉄橋は儚さを感じます 糠平湖には鹿が戯れてました

(Translated by Google) 2022.1.27 I walked from the smelt fishing parking lot to see the Taushubetsu River Bridge and ice bubbles. The lake was covered with snow almost completely, and there was only a small amount of ice where you could see ice bubbles. Looking at the Taushubetsu River Bridge for the first time in 15 years, It was much more broken down than before. As we traversed the snowy surface of the lake, there were several times when we heard a tremendous rumbling sound, and at times it felt as if the ice beneath our feet was being lifted up by a swell, which was quite frightening. I think in about 10 years, it will look like it has been cut off in several places. The weather was nice, the blue sky was the most beautiful against the white scenery, and the snow on the lake sparkled in the morning sun like diamond sand. The snow on the lake was shaped like a white desert and was beautiful. (Original) 2022.1.27 ワカサギ釣りの駐車場から歩いて、タウシュベツ川橋梁とアイスバブルを見に行きました。 湖は雪がほぼ全面雪が積もっていて、アイスバブルが見れる氷はほんの僅かでした。 タウシュベツ川橋梁は、15年振りに見ると、 以前よりかなり崩れていました。 湖の雪の上を横断中に、何度か物凄い地鳴りの様な音がして、足元の氷がウネリで持ち上がるかのような感じが伝わってくる時もあり、かなり恐怖でした。 後10年くらいで、何ヶ所が途切れた形になってしまうかと思います。 天気が良くて、白一面の景色の上に青空が最高に綺麗で、朝日に湖の雪がキラキラダイヤモンドの砂のように光ってました。 湖の雪も、白い砂漠のような形になっていて、綺麗でした。

Nice garden for a short walk. We didn't catch the peak autumn season but it was still beautiful. Worth visiting if you're in the area.

(Translated by Google) Open to the public only during the autumn leaves season This year it is scheduled to end on the 20th. I like the autumn leaves here the most in Tokachi. The grounds are well maintained I'm so happy that it's free. I guess the coloring is not so good this year Less bright red and more yellowish It was beautiful last year though. The color was bad the year before last too. It seems like it happens every other year. You can come in early in the morning. There are bears around here It's better when there are some people around. Music is always playing on the grounds. It has the meaning of warding off bears. (Original) 紅葉の時期だけ一般解放されます 今年は20日までの予定。 十勝でここの紅葉が一番好きです 敷地が綺麗に手入れされていて 無料開放なんて嬉しい限り。 今年は色付きがいまいちかな 鮮やかな赤が少なく黄色っぽい 昨年は綺麗だったんですけどね 一昨年も色付きが悪かったから 一年おきに繰り返してる感じ。 早朝からも入れますけど この辺りは熊が出ますから ある程度人がいる時の方が良い 敷地に音楽が常に流れているのも 熊よけの意味があります。

(Translated by Google) I visited on a weekday afternoon in the second week of October. It didn't seem like the best time to see it yet. The best time to see them may be during the next three-day weekend. The sun was out, but it was chilly and I think I'll need a jacket. (Original) 10月2週目の平日午後に伺いました。まだ、見頃とまではいかない感じでした。次の3連休中が、見頃かもしれません。 日は出ていましたが、肌寒く上着が必要かと思います。

(Translated by Google) Saturday, October 11th I was a little worried it might be a little early, but as you can see in the photo, it was a little early. However, the gradations of color and the beautiful blue sky, green, and red were amazing. I'm so grateful to be able to see such a facility for free. (Original) １０月１１日（土） 微妙に少し早いかなと不安でしたが、写真のとおり、少し早かったのですが、逆にグラデーションがあったり、青い空と緑と赤が綺麗に見えて、素晴らしかったです。 こんな施設を無料で見られるのなんて、感謝しかないです。

(Translated by Google) I was told this by an employee at a hotel at Lake Shikaribetsu. I happened to be able to visit during the peak autumn foliage season. This is a special release that will only be available for one month. An inbound tourist who appeared to be Taiwanese occupied half of my field of vision. This is a place I would like to visit again next year on a sunny day. (Original) 然別湖のホテルの従業員の方に教えてもらいました。紅葉のピーク時期に偶然訪れることができました。１か月しかない特別公開です。台湾人と思われるインバウンドが自分の視界の半数を占めていました。 また来年、晴れた日に訪れたい場所です。

(Translated by Google) This garden is located in Shikaoi Town, Tokachi, Hokkaido. This garden is privately owned. It is open to the public for free only during the autumn foliage season. It will take about 2 weeks, but The release period was extended in 2023 because the coloring was slow. The best time to see them is usually from early to mid-October. Details are announced on the Fukuhara Memorial Museum of Art website. Many maple trees, which are rare in Hokkaido, are planted here. You can literally enjoy the red leaves. By the way, please note that cell phones cannot be used in the inner part of the garden. There are two free parking lots along the road at the entrance to the mountain hut. It's very small and there are a limited number of spaces. There is no other place to park. It gets quite crowded on Saturdays and Sundays during the season. We recommend visiting early or on weekdays. Also, there are no restrooms, so be prepared in advance. By the way, the owner of this place is He is the founder of Fukuhara, a food supermarket chain located in the Tokachi and Kushiro regions. (Original) 北海道・十勝、鹿追町にある庭園です。 この庭園は、個人所有の私有地です。 紅葉のシーズンのみ、無料で一般開放されています。 約２週間程の期間ですが、 2023年は色づきが遅かったため、公開期間が延長されました。 例年の見頃は10月の上旬から中旬です。 詳細は福原記念美術館のサイトで告知しています。 北海道では少ない、カエデ類が多く植樹されており、 紅く染まった、文字通りの紅葉を楽しめます。 ちなみに庭園の奥は、携帯電話が通じませんのでご注意を。 無料駐車場が山荘入口の道沿いに2か所ありますが、 とても狭く、台数にも限りがあります。 そこ以外に停める場所はありません。 シーズン中の土日はかなり混み合います。 早い時間か、平日の訪問をおすすめします。 また、トイレなどはありませんので予めご準備を。 ちなみに、ここの所有者の方は、 十勝・釧路地方に展開する食品スーパー「フクハラ」の創業者です。

(Translated by Google) 2022.9/21.Visit Free admission from mid-September to October 16th. It is managed as a villa built by a local celebrity, Jihei Fukuhara, and is only open to the public during the autumn leaves season. It was still a little early in the season, and there was hardly any sign of the leaves changing color. It was a beautiful garden with a lot of nature, with a few small waterfalls and streams, and a few small ponds, and I was able to freely walk around it. Groups of tourists came to visit regularly on tour buses, but once the hustle and bustle of people left, what was left behind was the trees reflected in the calm water of the small pond, and a quiet space bathed in sunlight filtering through the trees. Even without the decorations, the place had a wonderful atmosphere that made me want to stay and see it for as long as I wanted. As usual, the peak season for autumn leaves is the first or second week of October. (Original) 2022.9/21.訪問 9月中旬から10月16日までの期間は無料開放。 地元の名士、福原治平氏の建てた別荘として管理され、紅葉の季節だけ一般開放されるみたい。 時期的にはまだ少し早く、ほとんど葉っぱの色づきの気配は感じられなかった。 ささやかな流れの滝と沢がいくつかあり、こじんまりとした数個の小さな池で形成された、自然を多く残す美しい庭園で、そこを自由に散策することができた。 定期的に観光バスで団体客が見学に来ていたけど、人の喧騒が去ると、後に残るのは穏やかな小池の水面に映る木々と、木洩れ日に包まれた静かな空間で、まだ秋の装いはなくとも、いつまでここに残って見続けたいと思えるぐらい素晴らしい雰囲気の場所だった。 例年通りだと、10月の一週、二週が紅葉の最盛期との事。

My plan was to stay there for 4 days for skiing at the town. But sadly they have a races on my stay (schools ski races), the slopes was not open for publics. So make me need to change my plan and moved to others places to stay. I think they should publish on them official website or office FB page to others people know they will not open for the public.

Decent ski field good for racing with a great fis race

Good

Ski and have SPA

(Translated by Google) 2024.3.10 Nukabira Genkyo Ski Resort has made its debut. On that day, a junior technical championship was being held. This season, the Tokachi region has light snow and a warm winter, but even though it was around mid-March, it was possible to ski in a wonderful slope here. There is a little less snow than usual, so the bushes are showing in some places, but you can still enjoy it. On this day, the 2024-2025 final test drive event was being held by Parson from Obihiro. I used to work at Sahoro, but this time I got to test drive a different model from next year. It was a happy moment. thank you very much. [The experience of actually skiing at the test drive event will stimulate your desire to purchase! ] (Original) 2024.3.10 ぬかびら源泉郷スキー場デビューしました。 当日はジュニアの技術選手権が開催されていました。 今季の十勝地方は小雪＆暖冬なのですが、３月中旬頃にもかかわらずここは素晴らしいバーンでの滑走が可能でした。 例年よりも若干雪が少なめなので所々はブッシュが顔を出していますが、まだまだ楽しめます。 この日、帯広のパーソンさん主催の2024-2025最終試乗会が行われていました。 以前サホロでお世話になったのですが、今回違った来期のモデルを試乗させていただきました。 幸せな瞬間でした。 ありがとうございました。 〔試乗会で実際に滑走させていただく体験は購入意欲をかき立てますね！〕

(Translated by Google) Originally, it was one of the best ski resorts in the world. If Obihiro Airport becomes international and flights to Fukuoka, Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo are established, the second and third lifts are restored, and direct buses to Obihiro Airport are improved, it is a valuable place that has the potential to catch the inbound wave. I sincerely hope that the second and third lifts to Onsenyama will be reopened. ski resort at Nukabira hot springs area. (Original) 本来は世界屈指の素晴らしいスキー場。帯広空港が国際化および福岡大阪名古屋東京便が確立し、第2第3リフトを復活させ帯広空港との直行バスが充実すれば間違いなくインバウンドの波にも乗り遅れないポテンシャルがある貴重な地。是非とも奮起して頂きたいと願っています。 I sincerely hope that the second and third lifts to Onsenyama will be reopened. ski resort at Nukabira hot springs area.

(Translated by Google) Visited for the first time in several years. Although it had bottomed out, there was still about 20cm of powder left, so this season I was finally able to ski without worrying about scratching my board. Ah, how happy I would be if I could climb two more climbs like I used to... (Original) 数年ぶりに訪問。底づきしてしまいますが20cm位のパウダーも残っていて、今シーズンやっと板の傷付きを心配しないで滑れました。あ～昔のように後2本上れたならばどんなに幸せなことだろうか・・・

From a bicycle touring point of view, you are better off stealth camping. 500yen for a dirty bathroom and a slightly undercover sink. Could be nice on a clear night.

Nice enough patch of grass, but I've been to roadside stops with more facilities.

(Translated by Google) We used this facility for summer camping. It was a very quiet environment, and the kitchen and bathrooms were kept clean and easy to use. We were also able to use the handcart freely, and they sorted and collected the trash, which was very helpful. We're grateful for their thorough management. (Original) 夏のキャンプに利用しました とても静かな環境で、炊事場もお手洗いも清潔に保たれていて、つかいやすかったです。 リヤカーも自由に利用でき、ゴミも分別して引き取ってくれるのでとてもありがたいです。 行き届いた管理に感謝です。

(Translated by Google) The incredibly reasonable price of 500 yen per person per night is fantastic, with toilets, plumbing, and even a trash disposal area. However, the clientele is not the best. There are drunk people who shout loudly into the night, people sleeping in their cars with the engine running, and children who kick over other people's tents and tarps and run away. While the clientele is not the campground's fault, they could do more to remind people to behave. (Original) 1泊ひとり500円という破格な料金で、トイレ、水廻り、ゴミ捨て場まで完備されていて素晴らしい。ただし客層があまり良くない。夜中まで大声で騒ぐ酔っぱらいやエンジンかけっぱなしの車中泊、他人のテントやタープを蹴飛ばして逃げていく子供。客層はキャンプ場の責任ではないけど、マナーを守る呼びかけをもう少ししてほしい。

(Translated by Google) The campsite was very well maintained and I was able to camp comfortably. There was a separation between solo camping and group camping, which was very comfortable. The area was surrounded by large trees, which I think would provide some buffer against strong winds. (Original) とても綺麗に整備されていて気持ちよくキャンプができた。なんとなーくソロとグループの住み分けができていて居心地もよかった。周りは大きな木に囲まれているため風が強い時も緩衝してくれるのでは。

(Translated by Google) It's very spacious and the sites are mostly flat. I think you'll be able to camp without worrying about distance even during peak season. The hot springs and Secoma are both about a 5-minute drive away, so it's very convenient and cheap, and I love it. (Original) とにかく広く、サイトはほぼ平地。 繁忙期でも距離感を保ってキャンプできると思います。 温泉、セコマ、ともに車で5分程度、利便性高く、安くてお気に入りです。

(Translated by Google) I used it in early July. The grass on the premises was neatly trimmed and wonderful. The parking lot was about 20% full. The hot spring, which is in an easily accessible location, was under renovation and only the showers were available. When I tried to take out the trash early in the morning, the trash can was locked, so be careful there. (Original) 7月上旬に利用しました 敷地の芝の刈込みもきれいで素晴らしかった 駐車場の埋まり具合は2割程度 アクセスの良い場所にある温泉が改修中でシャワーのみの利用となっていました 早朝ゴミ出しをしようとしたら、ゴミ箱に鍵が掛かっていたので、ソコには注意しましょう

(Translated by Google) Former site of Horoka Station on the Shihoro Line I often stop here when sightseeing in the area. There is also a parking space nearby. There was no one else there, so I was able to stroll around leisurely in an atmosphere where time seemed to stand still. The platform and station sign. It is a simple station with just the tracks and a switch, but that is what makes it so wonderful. I hope it will remain forever. (Original) 士幌線幌加駅跡 周辺観光の際は度々寄っています。 すぐ近くに駐車スペースもあります。 他に誰もいなかった事もあり まるで時間が止まったような雰囲気でゆっくり散策できました。 ホームと駅看板。線路軌道、それにポイントがあるだけの簡素な駅ですが、それがまた素晴らしいですね。 いつまでも残していただきたいと感じます。

(Translated by Google) I visited at around 8am, and the rain had stopped, so I was able to see the old abandoned Shihoro Line for the second time. It was a fantastical world. If you visit Shihoro Town, I highly recommend this abandoned line, as well as Taushubetsu. However, it is cold in the morning, even in summer, so short sleeves are not suitable. Also, it was well-maintained when I visited twice, and I hope that this abandoned line will still be there in 10 or 20 years. (Original) 朝方の８時ぐらいに訪れ、雨も止み、二度も士幌線の旧廃線を見る事が出来、幻想的な世界でした。士幌町へ訪れた際は、タウシュベツもそうですが、此方の廃線も是非オススメします。ただ、朝方は、夏でも寒く、半袖は不向きです。また、二度訪れた際も綺麗に手入れされていましたが、１０年後、２０年後もこの廃線が残っている事を願っています。

(Translated by Google) Visited in mid-August 2025 This is the former site of Horoka Station on the former Japan National Railways Shihoro Line, located right next to the Horoka Snow Removal Station. I always stop here for a break when traveling along the Nukabira National Highway, and it always offers a different view. There is also a parking lot on the Horoka Station side, but it's gravel and can only accommodate a small number of cars. (Original) 2025.08中旬 訪問 幌加除雪ステーションのすぐ横にある旧国鉄士幌線・幌加駅の跡地です。糠平国道を通行の際は休憩を兼ねていつも立寄ってますがその時々の情景を見せてくれます。 幌加駅側にも駐車場はありますが砂利となっており駐車台数もそれほど多くは停まれません。

(Translated by Google) Visited on May 27, 2025. It has a nostalgic atmosphere. It operated from 1939 to 1978. The parking lot is along the road, but I accidentally parked in the snow removal station next door (free, toilets available) (Original) 2025.5.27に訪問。 ノスタルジックな雰囲気になります。 昭和14から53年まで運行。 駐車場は道沿いなのですが間違えて隣りの除雪ステーションに入ってしまいました（無料、トイレあり）

(Translated by Google) This is the remains of a station on the abandoned Shihoro Line of the former Japanese National Railways. It was one stop before the terminal station, Tokachi Mitsumata. The remains of the Shihoro Line are famous for the Taushubetsu River Bridges, and it is a place where you can see many nostalgic remains. (Original) 廃線となった旧国鉄士幌線の駅跡。終着駅の十勝三又のひとつ手前の駅でした。士幌線の鉄道遺構はタウシュベツ川橋梁群が有名で、郷愁をさそう遺構を数多く見ることのできる場所です。

(Translated by Google) The grass-covered tracks and platform are reminiscent of their former glory. It's located at the back right as you approach from the parking lot. It would be helpful if they put up a sign in the parking lot saying "→ Former Horoka Station, ◯◯ meters away." There's no signal in this area, so if you're using Google Maps to navigate, I recommend downloading offline maps. (Original) 芝生に包まれた線路とプラットフォームに在りし日の姿が偲ばれます 駐車場から向かって右側奥にあります 駐車場に「→幌加駅跡◯◯メートル」と案内看板を建ててくれれば親切なのにと思います この辺の電波は圏外なのでGoogleに案内させる場合はオフラインマップを落としておく事をオススメします

(Translated by Google) It is an abandoned railway site, but it is managed by people. There were no other visitors because it was a place you came out of while traveling along a quiet road. It is good for a quiet walk in the forest where there is no one. However, there is a brown bear habitat not far away, so be careful. (Original) 폐선 부지이지만, 사람에 의해 관리되고 있는 곳입니다. 한적한 도로를 따라 여행하다가 나오는 곳이라 다른 방문객은 없었어요. 숲 속 아무도 없는 곳에서 한적하게 산책하기 좋습니다. 다만 멀리 떨어지지 않은 곳이 불곰 서식지이니 주의하시길.

Beautiful place

This is the wonderful authentic ryokan. ♥️

(Translated by Google) I stayed overnight on a Sunday. It seems to be popular, as there were many day trippers as well. There are also lots of deer around. There were easy-to-understand signs in various places around the inn. The owner was also very polite. The rooms are old, but the toilets are new and clean. There are no TVs in the rooms, they are in the lounge. All the hot springs are mixed bathing. The indoor and outdoor baths, each with three different spring qualities, were all great. There is also a women-only indoor bath. There didn't seem to be any crocodile-like people around. The inn itself was very nice, so I would probably go again, but the walls were thin and the old man in the room next door was drunk and noisy, which was a shame. (Original) 日曜日に一泊しました。 人気のようで日帰り客も沢山来てました。 周り鹿も沢山居ます。 宿には色々な所に説明書きがあり分かりやすかった。 主人も丁寧でした。 部屋は古いですがトイレは新しくキレイです。 部屋にテレビは無く休憩室にあります。 温泉は全て混浴。 ３種類の泉質の内風呂、露天風呂どれも良かったです。 女性専用内風呂有ります。 ワニっぽい人は居ない感じでした。 宿自体はとても良かったのでまた行くと思うけど壁が薄く隣の部屋のジジィが酔ってうるさくそれだけが残念でした。

(Translated by Google) I visited this hot spring last October. It's a wonderful one! The staff were very polite, and the other guests were considerate of each other, which made for a truly enjoyable experience. Because it's a free-flowing hot spring, the hot spring elements layering in the bathtub are impressive! I enjoyed a relaxing soak in the open-air bath while watching the deer. ^_^ I imagine they maintain the hot springs daily to prevent injury to your feet from the ever-accumulating hot spring water. I imagine the polishing process must be quite difficult. I felt that the staff's strong love for hot springs is what has allowed them to continue to do this to this day. I'm grateful. I'll definitely stay here again next time. (Original) 昨年の10月に利用しました。素敵な温泉です！スタッフさんも丁寧で、利用者さん達の互いの気遣いがあって温泉を楽しめました。源泉掛け流しなので、浴槽に重なる温泉の成分は迫力があります！露天風呂では鹿の姿をみながらのんびり湯に浸かることができました^_^ 積層する温泉の元で足を怪我しないように日々メンテナンスされてると思います。研磨する作業は相当な苦労があるかも思います。スタッフさんの温泉を愛する強い思いがあるからこそ、今日まで続けていることを感じました。感謝です。 次回は宿泊しようと思います。

(Translated by Google) The building is old, but it's perfectly clean! It even has a washlet. Bathing suits are available to rent for 100 yen. The outdoor bath is in a fantastic location, and the indoor bath lets you enjoy three different types of hot spring water at the same time. Above all, I was impressed by the thoughtfulness of the young couple who run the hotel, and especially the young landlady. It was worth the flight fare from Tokyo. I'd definitely go again. (Original) 建物は古いですが清掃は完璧！ウォシュレットも備わっます。 湯浴み着も百円で貸して頂けます。素晴らしいロケーションの露天風呂、内風呂は三種の泉質が同時にたのしめます。 何より若い経営者のご夫婦特に、若い女将さんの心遣いには感心しました。 東京から飛行機代をかけても行く価値がありました。又行きたと思います。

(Translated by Google) Here's some information about bathing suits that women will be interested in. Guests staying overnight can rent them, and day trippers can bring their own and wear them in the baths. On the day I used the baths for the day trip, there were three young women there, but they didn't have bathing suits. As a result, only polite gentlemen and ladies were in the baths. (Original) 女性なら気になる湯浴み着の情報です。 宿泊客はレンタルありで日帰り客は持参すれば着用して入浴できます。 わたしが日帰り利用した日は若い女性が3名おられましたが、湯着ナシでした。 結果、浴場には礼儀正しい紳士淑女しかいらっしゃいませんでした。

(Translated by Google) This is a total crocodile hot spring. Such persistence, even deep in the mountains. It's too scary. I wouldn't recommend it for children, women, or couples. I read reviews saying that bathing suits were allowed here until two years ago, but that's no longer permitted. That's it. There's no signal here. You can't report anything if something happens. The public phones belong to the facility, so I'm not sure if they work or if you'll be allowed to use them. Women can only use the sodium spring in the small bath. The water is very nice, but it seems to have changed a lot since before, which is a shame. Are there times when there aren't any crocodiles? Staying overnight seems to be highly satisfying, but it's not ideal for day trips. (Original) 完全なるワニ温泉です。山奥にまできてこの執念。怖すぎる。子ども、女性、カップルにはすすめないです。2年前までゆあみ着可の口コミありますが、今は禁止です。そういうことです。 電波も入らない場所です。何かあっても通報できません。公衆電話は施設のものです、使えるか使わせてもらえるかわかりません。 女性は小さな浴場のナトリウム泉だけ使えます。とても良いお湯なのに以前とずいぶん変わってしまったようで残念です。 ワニがいないときもあるよう？ 宿泊での満足度は高いようですが、 日帰りでは利用しづらい。

Kind of a weird park, no views of the river and pretty deserted in the off season.

Just a ground

(Translated by Google) This is my favorite campsite since I first used it 27 years ago. It's the best. There were quite a few mosquitoes this time, so it's a good idea to bring insect repellent and forest incense. (Original) 27年前に初めて利用してから私のお気に入りのキャンプ場です。最高ですよ。今回はかなりヤブカがいましたので、虫よけと森林香は用意したほうがいいです。

(Translated by Google) I used it on a camping trip. It was still available at the end of October. Lawns, tables, and equipment are available at low prices. There are convenience stores and hot springs nearby, so it is recommended for riders if you are not looking for a location. (Original) キャンプツーリングで利用しました。10月末でも利用できました。低価格で芝生、テーブル、設備も揃ってます。近くにコンビニ、温泉がありロケーションを求めなければライダーにオススメです。

(Translated by Google) I visited for the 2025 Balloon Festival. It was a great event. I wonder how it would turn out as a park? (Original) 2025年、バルーンフェスタで訪れました よいイベントです 公園としてはどうだろう？

(Translated by Google) Free site fee is 500 yen and trash disposal is free!! There is a hot spring about 5 minutes away by car for 300 yen!! (Original) フリーサイト500円でゴミ捨て無料！！車で5分くらいのところに温泉300円！！

(Translated by Google) 2022.8.13 I came to see the Kamishihoro Balloon Festival. Although this park is named after the venue, this location is exclusively for competitors, and the venue is on the side of the campsite. Competition flights will be held from 5:30 in the morning and 16:00 in the evening, with many balloons participating from all over the country. When a large number of balloons are inflated, they rise one after another and fly away, creating a magical scene with the sound of burners echoing in the silence. (Original) 2022.8.13上士幌バルーンフェスティバル見に来ました。 会場としてこの公園名が付いてますが、この位置は競技者専用の場所で、会場はキャンプ場側です。 朝5:30～、夕方16:00から競技飛行が有り、全国から沢山の気球の参加が有ります。 多数の気球が膨らみ初めて、次々上がって飛んで行く景色は、静かな中にバーナー音が響き、幻想的な風景になります。

(Translated by Google) This observation deck and rest spot is located on the way to the Naitai Plateau and Shihoro Plateau. It's easy to find, as it's located at a corner. There are also restrooms, so you can stop by for a quick break and enjoy the spectacular views. (Original) ナイタイ高原や士幌高原などへ向かう途中にある展望台兼レストスポット 場所は曲がり角にあるのでわかりやすいです トイレもあるので軽く休憩に立ち寄ったついでに絶景を楽しめます

(Translated by Google) There's nothing but vast farmland The straight road along the way looks like Hokkaido. In the past, it was just a parking lot and benches. I feel like it wasn't there It's a place with a nice view There aren't many tourists so it's quiet. It's a hidden gem. (Original) 何も無いんだけど広大な農地と 途中の直線道路が北海道っぽい。 昔は駐車場とベンチ程度しか 無かった気がします そこそこ眺めも良い場所だし 観光客も少なくて静かなので 穴場的な場所です。

(Translated by Google) This observation deck is a lonely house that doesn't even appear in tourist guides. I happened to pass by it in June 2025, when I was heading to Minamifurano from the Naitai Highlands. It doesn't compare to the Naitai Highlands, but it does offer a view of the Tokachi Plain. There are toilets, too, so I thought it was a little-known tourist spot. (Original) 観光ガイドにも載らないぽつんと一軒家的な展望台。 ナイタイ高原から南富良野に向かっていた令和7年6月、偶然通りかかりました。 ナイタイ高原にはかないませんが、十勝平野が見渡せます。トイレもあり、穴場的観光スポットだと思いました。

(Translated by Google) It's a hidden gem. You can enjoy the view of the Tokachi Plain and enjoy the ``road that leads to the sky''. It is also easily accessible as it is located along National Route 337. I visited in late April 2025, but the parking lot was closed for the winter, so entry was prohibited, and the toilet was locked so I couldn't use it. (Original) 穴場です。 十勝平野の眺めが良く、「天空に続く道」を味合うことができます。 そして国道337号沿いにあるため、アクセスもしやすいです。 2025年4月下旬に訪問しましたが、冬季閉鎖中とのことで駐車場は進入禁止、トイレは鍵が掛かっており利用できませんでした。

(Translated by Google) On the way from Kamishihoro to Naitai Plateau, there is a parking lot with a large parking space and an observation deck. After using the toilet, I turned around and could see Kamishihoro, which I had been climbing up until then, looking down. The view was so beautiful that I ended up arriving at Naitai a little late. (Original) 上士幌からナイタイ高原に向かう途中にある、広い駐車スペースと展望台を持つパーキング。トイレを済ませて振り返ると、これまで緩やかに上ってきた上士幌を見下ろすことができます。とても綺麗な景色で、ナイタイ到着が少し遅れました。

(Translated by Google) There is a car park and well-maintained toilets. (Original) 駐車場と綺麗に管理されたおトイレがあります。

(Translated by Google) A gravity concrete dam on the Tokachi River system. For power generation only. Perhaps because the embankment is straight and the angle is steep, it gives a smart impression for some reason. Because of its height, the view is also good. Fortunately, when I visited, the water level of Lake Nukabira had fallen, and I was able to see the former Japan National Railway Shihoro Line and the Taushubetsu River Bridge. I'm pretty happy. By the way, you can get a dam card by showing a photo of the dam taken with your smartphone at the Higashi Daisetsu Nature Museum in Nukahira Onsenkyo. (Original) 十勝川水系の重力式コンクリートダム。発電専用。 堤体が真っ直ぐで角度が急なせいか、何故かスマートな印象を受ける。高さもあるので、眺めも良い。 また、訪れた際は運の良いことに糠平湖の水位が下がっていて、かつての日本国有鉄道士幌線、タウシュベツ川橋梁を見ることができた。中々に嬉しい。 ちなみにダムカードは、ぬかひら温泉郷にある「ひがし大雪自然館」で、スマホなどで撮ったダムの写真を見せると貰える。

(Translated by Google) A dam on the Otofuke River in Nukabira Onsenkyo, Kamishihoro Town. Lake Nukabira, famous for its hot springs and the Taushubetsu River Bridge, was created by this Nukabira Dam. It also generates hydroelectric power, and Nukabira Power Station Shrine is located near the dam. A rockfall occurred during construction, and a Jizo statue and a memorial monument have been erected to mourn those who lost their lives in the line of work. It is quite impressive when viewed up close, and together with Lake Nukabira it makes for a beautiful view. (Original) 上士幌町ぬかびら温泉郷の音更川にあるダム。 温泉とタウシュベツ川橋梁で有名な糠平湖はこの糠平ダムによって造られたダム湖です。水力発電も行っていてダムの近くに糠平電源神社があります。建設時に落盤事故が起こりその殉職者を弔うお地蔵様や慰霊碑が建てられていました。 近くで見るとかなり迫力があり糠平湖と合わせて良い景色を観られました。

(Translated by Google) Because this dam was built, the famous Taushubetsu Bridge ruins were built! If you look at the dam, take a photo to show that you've come to the dam, and go to the Higashi Taisetsu Museum, you can get a dam card! I couldn't get it because I took the opposite route. (Original) このダムが出来たから、かの有名なタウシュベツ橋梁跡が出来た！ ダムを観て、ダムに来たことがわかる様に写真撮って、ひがし大雪資料館に行くとダムカードが貰えるようです！ 私は逆ルートだったので貰えませんでした

(Translated by Google) We drove under Nukabira Dam and Nukabira Bridge. The road was a little rough. The scenery was beautiful. (Original) 糠平ダムと糠平大橋の下に車で行きました。 道が少し悪いです。 景色が綺麗でした。

(Translated by Google) ☆Nukabira Dam☆ I came here for the first time in a while I've passed by many times... Honestly, from the observation deck above The view is the best, but I passed this time ^^; Still, the weather near the dam is Fortunately, the faint autumn leaves It was beautiful~☆ (Original) ☆糠平ダム☆ ここも久しぶりにやって来ました 何度も通ってはいましたが… ホント言うとこの上の展望台から の眺めが最高ですが今回はパス^^; それでもダム付近も天気が 良かっためと薄っすらの紅葉が 綺麗でしたよ～☆

(Translated by Google) It was built as part of the Tokachi Nukabira power source integrated development plan, and is a power generation dam managed by Electric Power Development, and is said to be an important power source in eastern Hokkaido. It has the 3rd largest flooded area and 4th largest water storage capacity in Hokkaido, and the 3rd largest flooded area and water storage capacity among dams in the Tokachi River system, as well as the 3rd highest levee height. The artificial lake formed by the dam is called Lake Nukabira. I stopped by on my trip to Hokkaido in early autumn, but there was no one around and the place felt a little lonely. As someone who has a fear of heights, I don't like looking down from these tall structures. Anyway, it was a very pleasant place 😃 (Original) 十勝糠平系電源一貫開発計画の一環で築造され、電源開発が管理を行う発電専用ダムで道東の重要な電源らしいです。道内3位の湛水面積と4位の貯水量であり、十勝川水系のダムでは首位の湛水面積と貯水量、および3位の堤高である。ダムによって形成された人造湖は糠平湖（ぬかびらこ）と呼ばれている。 初秋の北海道旅行と題して立ち寄りましたが人影もなく、ちょっと寂しさすら感じる場所でした。高所恐怖症の気がある私にとって、こうした高い構造物から下を見るのは苦手です。 とにかく、とても気持ち良い場所でした〜😃

(Translated by Google) The dam that created Lake Nukabira. From the observation deck you can see Taushubetsu Bridge in the distance. (Original) 糠平湖を造ったダム。展望台からはタウシュベツ橋も遠くに望めます。

(Translated by Google) For those who know Hitoshi Saito and those who are interested in spirituality, this is a great place to visit at least once. My heart is purified, and I don't know why, but I feel motivated to be positive. There are also fortune telling fortunes that can see through your current situation, lol. *Note ⚠️ This is a personal opinion. It's a place where you can learn the importance of kotodama, and if the weather is nice, the scenery is nice. It's okay as is ☆☆☆ (Original) 斎藤一人さんをご存知な方々、スピリチュアルに興味のある方々は、是非一度でも立ち寄るべき、良き場所です。 ココロが浄化され、なぜかわからないけど前向きになれる意欲が湧いてきます。 まるで、今の状況が見透かされてしまう、おみくじもありますよ 笑 ※注⚠️ 個人的見解です。 言霊の重要さも学べる、天気が良ければ景色も良き場所です。 そのままで大丈夫☆☆☆

(Translated by Google) My parents brought me here, but I felt something religious about it that I didn't quite understand. (Original) 親につれてこられたが何がなんだかよくわからない宗教的な何かを感じました

(Translated by Google) It was built by President Emiko Shibamura, the best disciple of my mentor in life, Hitoshi Saito, in hopes of the development of her hometown. It is located in Kamishihoro Town, Hokkaido, the hometown of President Emiko. Kamishihoro Town has been so successful in revitalizing the town through the use of hometown tax donations that even former Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga visited to see the town. Your wish will come true✨ (Original) 私の人生の師匠、斎藤一人さんの一番弟子、柴村恵美子社長が故郷の発展を願い、建立しました。恵美子社長の故郷、北海道上士幌町にあります。 上士幌町は、菅義偉前総理も視察に訪れたほど、ふるさと納税を活用して町おこしに大成功しています。願いは叶う✨

(Translated by Google) If you are a Hitori-san fan, this is a temple with a thousand-armed Kannon statue that is a must-see! Since it's a temple, there are graves nearby, but that's normal so I don't really care! When you meet Kannon, you will feel a surge of power! (Original) 一人さんファンなら必見の千手観音様があるお寺です！ お寺なので、お墓も近くにありますが、そこは普通のことなので気にしない気にしない！ 観音様とご対面したらパワーが湧いてきますね！

(Translated by Google) I feel refreshed. Thank you. (Original) リフレッシュしました。ありがとうございます。

(Translated by Google) We set out on an Affleck 430t boat from the hot spring town🛶.We were blessed with good weather and arrived in about an hour.Since it is a sacred area, we did not go ashore but instead visited the shrine from the lake.Depending on the wind direction, we took the boat from the col in the direction of Lake Shinonome. The wind can be strong at times, so be careful.It looks like the pleasure boat is closed on Wednesdays.On this day, it was closed.One lap is 13km.Next time, I would definitely like to try the whole trip. I left Sapporo for a 440km round trip the day before and went to the roadside station Shikaoi, where there was a 7-Eleven and Seikoma across the street, which was very convenient, but I was disappointed that there was no hot spring for day trips. (Original) 温泉街からアフレック430tで出艇🛶、天気にも恵まれ小一時間で到着、神聖な神域でありますので、上陸はせず湖上から参拝しました、風向きにもよりますが東雲湖方向のコルからの風は強い時がありますので注意が必要です、水曜日遊覧船は運休日のようです、この日は運休日でした、一周13km次回は是非一周に挑戦したいと思います。 札幌から往復440km前日に出発し道の駅鹿追で前泊向いにセブンイレブン・セイコマがありとても便利ですが日帰り温泉がないのが残念でした。

(Translated by Google) This is a small island located in Lake Shikaribetsu, a natural lake that was dammed due to volcanic activity. It is a mysterious lake that was once worshiped as a sacred place by the Ainu people. There is no road to get to the island. If you take a sightseeing boat, you can turn around and view it from the direction of the torii gate. After doing a little research, I heard that it is a power spot protected by mountain dragons and water dragons, and that landing is only allowed once a year during a festival. It's called the White Snake Princess Festival, and it's said that the goddess used a white snake to lead the Ainu people who were suffering from starvation to this lake where many fish called Oshorokoma lived. It's like a festival based on that legend. It seems to be a very fantastic festival where a white snake and a princess dance in a bonfire. It looks like it will be held in July, so I suddenly became interested. You can also hear the story of Oshorokoma in the announcements on the cruise ship. The god is Benzaiten, who controls art and financial luck! By the way, you can see fine ceramic works at Hotel Feng Shui. It's a small island surrounded by nature, so it's a good idea to take a look when you're in the area. I went to see it on a pleasure boat. There are activities such as canoeing, so I wonder if there is a Bentenjima course? (Original) 火山活動で堰き止められ出来た自然湖、然別湖にある小さな島です。その昔アイヌの人々から聖地として崇められてきた神秘の湖です。その島へ行く道などはありません。遊覧船に乗ると折り返して鳥居方面からご覧になれますよ。 少し調べてみると、山龍と水龍に守られたパワースポットとの事、年に一度のお祭りの時だけ上陸が許されていると聞きます。白蛇姫祭りと言って、飢餓に苦しむアイヌの人々を女神様が白蛇を使わしオショロコマという魚が沢山住まうこの湖に導いたとか。その伝説に基づくお祭りの様です。篝火の中、白蛇と姫御子が舞うとても幻想的なお祭りらしいですよ。7月に催される様ですね、俄然私も興味が湧きました。 遊覧船の道中アナウンスでもオショロコマのお話を聞く事ができます。神様は芸術や金運を司る弁財天様！そう言えば、ホテル風水さんでは立派な陶器の作品がご覧になれますね。 大自然に囲まれた小さな島、お近くへ行かれた際にはご覧になられても良いですよね。私は遊覧船に乗り観てきましたよ。カヌー体験などアクティビティーがありますので、弁天島コースなど有るのかな？

(Translated by Google) Accessible by canoe from the north shore campground. It can also be accessed from the canoe port on the hot spring town side. If a pleasure boat approaches while rowing, be careful not to get hit by the waves. You can land from the side where the torii gate stands. However, it's a rocky area, so be careful if you're on felt. The coffee you drink here is exceptional. There is a small shrine and an offering box, so it's a good place to visit. When a sightseeing boat circles the island, it is sure to attract a lot of attention. (Original) 北岸キャンプ場からカヌーでならアクセス可。温泉街側のカヌーポートからも行ける。漕艇中、遊覧船が接近した場合は横浪を受けないように注意したい。鳥居が立っている側から上陸できる。ただし岩場なのでフｧルトの場合は気をつけて。ここで飲むコーヒーは格別。小さなお社と賽銭箱があるのでお参りも良し。遊覧船が島の周りをぐるりと一周する場合は衆目を浴びるのは必至。

(Translated by Google) Apparently it is visited during the White Snake Princess Festival on the first Saturday of July. You can get close to it by sightseeing boat, but it's usually an island so you can't get close to it. Please worship from the side of the road. The Yura of the White Snake Princess Festival seems to come from an Ainu legend, but please see the website for details. (Original) 7月第1土曜日 白蛇姫祭りでお参りするらしい。 遊覧船で近くまで行けるが、通常は島なので近寄れないw 道路脇から拝んで下さい。 白蛇姫祭りの由良はアイヌ伝説かららしいが詳細はwebでどうぞ。

(Translated by Google) I went for a canoe ride, but I didn't have time so I couldn't go. (Original) カヌーに乗りましたが時間がなかったので行けませんでした

Lake Shikaribetsu Kotan has been built on the lake, and there is an open-air bath and drink bar🍸✨🍸Eagles etc. You can clearly see the large flocks of landlocked chars swimming around with the naked eye from the shores of the hot spring town, and they also appear in meals at inns, so please look forward to them.

(Translated by Google) Where you want a telephoto lens (Original) 望遠がほしいところ

Misleading photos. The view is through a forest at a far distance from the bridge. It will be nice if someone described the place so others might not be misled to travel such a distance to great disappointment. There isn't any network at this area so please download your offline maps.

There are space along the road to safely park the car. The trail is about 180m. The bridge looks small from the observation deck. We are the only one there at 5pm.

No proper parking, just a roadside stop. Take a short hike to a clearing and see the old bridge. Underwhelming in my opinion because it's quite far off, and view is narrow. No information on English.

A really far viewpoint (for perspective, my photo here is at 2X zoom), but I guess the best place to view the bridge (unless taking the hike to it, which needs to be booked in advance). A really quick stop here.

Great to have a look on a historical site, especially at a time that its not flooded with water or covered with snow. Sad thing is the bridge is far away even from the observation deck.

The most wonderful abandoned train bridge I ever seen before 📷 20 October 2023

It was a sudden stop, so it was a view from afar. I think it would have been even better if it was a distance (very close) to go on a nature guided tour.

(Translated by Google) Visited 2024-7-21. Admission fee is cheap at 100 yen. Materials related to the former National Railway Shihoro Line, which was abolished in March 1987, are on display. Materials from the active era are summarized in a compact manner. The altitude of this area is about 530m, and I think the railroad was well laid from Obihiro to here. Around the museum, Nukabira Station's station name sign (possibly a restored one?), tracks, and caboose are also on display. There is also the Higashi Daisetsu Nature Museum nearby, so we recommend visiting it as well (it's free). In addition, Nukabira Dam cards are also distributed at the Higashi Daisetsu Shizenkan. (Original) 2024-7-21訪問。入場料は100円と格安。1987(昭和62年)年3月に廃止となった旧国鉄士幌線に係わる資料が展示されています。現役時代の資料がコンパクトにまとめてあります。この辺の標高は530m程度あり、帯広からここまでよく線路を敷設したなと思います。資料館周辺には糠平駅の駅名標(多分復元？)や線路、車掌車も展示されています。付近にひがし大雪自然館もあるので併せて見学がお勧めです(こちらは無料)。なお、ひがし大雪自然観では糠平ダムカードも配布していますよ。

A well maintained rail museum documenting the history of railway services in the area. The interior is small but filled with information. Entrance is 100yen. What's disappointing however is probably there's only one rail car left outdoors. The disused track though is pretty long and one can actually take a walk around the premise too.

(Translated by Google) I saw it in a magazine and wanted to see it for myself, so I went there! The sight of the railroad tracks in the forest really struck a chord with me. (Original) 雑誌で見かけて実際に見たいと思い訪問しました！森林の中に線路が敷かれている光景が胸にギュンときました💗

(Translated by Google) Valuable materials such as drawings of the Taushubetsu Bridge are on display. We recommend stopping by during your bridge tour. (Original) タウシュベツ橋梁の図面など貴重な資料が展示されています。橋梁ツアーあわせて立ち寄って頂きたいです

(Translated by Google) You can choose a station and play a driving simulation. There are also interesting documents from that time on display. I think the admission fee of 100 yen is quite cheap. (Original) 駅を選んで、運転シミュレーションで遊べる。資料も当時のものが展示されていて興味深い。入場料100円なら十分安いと思う。

(Translated by Google) It might be a good idea to stop by before heading to the Taushubetsu Bridge. 🫡 You can learn about the history of the former JNR Shihoro Line. Admission is 100 yen. (Original) タウシュベツ橋梁へ行く前に立ち寄るといいかもしれません🫡 旧国鉄士幌線の歴史を学ぶことができます 入館料１００円です

The highest pass in Hokkaido but curiously served only by a small shop and cafe (which is really popular as it has interesting items on sale) with single origin coffee too. It is interesting to note that the area used to be inhabited and was a village and that a railroad once goes to the area primarily for timber transportation. Nowadays, no one lives in this area and it's known for its high pass and a beautiful car bridge near (around 200-400m) to it.

Mikuni Pass Observation Deck is one of the most breathtaking viewpoints in Hokkaido. Located along National Route 273, it offers a stunning panoramic view of the Daisetsuzan Mountain Range and the vast sea of trees below. When we visited, the air was crisp and cool, and the scenery looked like a painting, especially with the autumn colors spreading across the mountains. There’s a small parking area and a café nearby where you can enjoy a warm drink while admiring the view. The observation deck itself is easy to access and well-maintained, making it a perfect stop for travelers driving between Kamishihoro and Sounkyo. It’s especially beautiful in early morning or late afternoon when the sunlight touches the treetops and the valley glows in shades of gold and green. For anyone exploring central Hokkaido, Mikuni Pass Observation Deck is a must-visit spot for stunning views and a true sense of nature’s grandeur.

Came here at the earliest to enjoy the magnificent view of the place of the gods. Will drop by again soon. 🏔️

Has a great cafe and clean toilet

Highly recommended to stop here as it offers a breathtaking view of the highest roadway in Hokkaido at 1139 metres. There's a toilet, small souvenir shop and cafe here.

Very nice viewing platform. This places at the top of Mikuni-pass, and it is the highest part in National road in Hokkaido. You can see the mountains of Higashi- Daisetsu, eastern part of Daisetsuzan volcanic group. You will get a bit fantastic when you realize the plain in front of the platform is on the old caldera.

Decent view and you can see the ski field in the distance. Exiting the parking can be tricky due to blind corner

(Translated by Google) When heading south from the Sounkyo area, it is located just before the famous Taushubetsu Observation Deck. It is close to National Route 273 and can be seen from the car window, but there is also a promenade leading from the nearby snow removal station. (If you go along the promenade behind the snow removal station and go to the right, you will see the old Horoka Station, and if you go to the left you will see the ruins of this bridge.) However, since it is difficult to see from the promenade, you may be tempted to see it from the national highway, but as others have said, please be careful of car traffic. (Original) 層雲峡方面から南下してくる際、有名なタウシュベツ展望台よりも手前にあります。国道273号からほど近く車窓からも見えますが、近くの除雪ステーションからの遊歩道も整備されています。 （除雪ステーションの裏の遊歩道を向かって右側に進むと旧幌加駅、左側に進むとこちらの橋梁跡に） ただ、遊歩道からは見えづらいのでついつい国道から見たくなりますが、他の方も書かれているとおりクルマの往来には気を付けてください。

(Translated by Google) It is a bridge about 5 minutes on foot from the old Horoka station. You can go from either the abandoned railway track or along the road. (Original) 旧幌加駅から徒歩で5分くらいの橋梁です。廃線跡、道路沿いのどちらからでも行くことができます。

(Translated by Google) Fifth tone Saragawa Bridge Total length 109m, largest art span 23m (Original) 第五音更川橋梁 全長109m 最大アーチスパン23m

(Translated by Google) It's a magnificent appearance that gives you the illusion of when the train was still crossing the bridge. Especially because the bridge is tall. The lookout point from the promenade may be difficult to see because the vegetation grows abundantly depending on the season. It is about 5 to 6 minutes on foot from the Horoka parking lot next to the snow removal station near Takinosawa Bridge. (Original) 列車がまだ橋を渡っていた頃の幻想を抱ける様な立派な佇まいですね。 橋に高さがあるので尚更です。 遊歩道からの展望ポイントは時期によって草木が豊かに生い茂るので見えにくくなってしまうかも。 滝の沢橋近く、除雪ステーション横の幌加駐車場から徒歩5~6分程です。

(Translated by Google) I was able to see it from Takinosawa Bridge, a short walk from the snow removal station parking lot. There is a footpath up to the bridge, but there is none on the bridge, so be careful of cars. If you go down the mountain road next to the bridge, you can get to the bridge ruins, but entry is prohibited. (Original) 除雪ステーションの駐車場から少し歩いて行くと、滝の沢橋から見ることができました。橋までは歩道がありますが、橋には無いので、車に注意してください。 橋の脇の山道をちょっと降りると橋梁跡のすぐ近くまで行けますが立入り禁止です。

(Translated by Google) Visited on October 26, 2024. The remains of a bridge on a newly constructed line that began service in 1955, 7m long. The bus stops on the roadside between Gonosawa bus stop and Shirakababashi, and this is the view from the top of Shirakababashi. Although the bridge remains are short, they are easy to see. (Original) 2024年10月26日訪問です。1955年供用開始の新設線の橋梁跡、長さ7m。五の沢バス停と白樺橋の間の路側帯に停車して、"白樺橋"上からの景観です。短い長さの橋梁跡ですが見易いとこです。

(Translated by Google) Shihoro Line Gonosawa Bridge Ruins In this area, the railroad tracks have become a promenade. It's a great path for a walk Although it is a very small bridge, it is still in use as a promenade. It is attractive that unlike other bridges, you can walk across it. Like Hokkaido The water of the stream is clear The green is deep and beautiful After all, the flies will attack 🪰 It's a bit of a walk from the parking space, but there are signs so you can easily get there. (Original) 士幌線五の沢橋梁跡 このエリアでは線路跡が遊歩道になっています 散歩するには最高の小径です とても小さな橋梁ですが、遊歩道として今も現役です 他の橋梁と違って歩いて渡れるところが魅力的ですね 北海道らしく 沢の水は清らかで 緑は深く美しく やっぱり虻は襲ってくる🪰 駐車スペースから少し歩きますが、サインなどもあるので容易に辿り着けます

(Translated by Google) The former Shihoro Line railway bridge, Gonosawa Bridge Ruins. This arch bridge is visible even when parked on the roadside. Completed in 1955, it is 5 meters long. (Original) 舊士幌線的鐵道橋 一 五の沢橋梁跡。 停在路邊就可以看見的拱橋。1955年完成，橋長5m的拱橋。

(Translated by Google) 2024/10/27/12:30 I parked in a parking lot with a sign along the road (roadside strip?), and since I didn't know the official route, I pushed through the bamboo grass to arrive. Shoes are required to take pictures from along the stream. Summer aside, at this time of year, rowing through the bamboo grass is a low-grade activity, so we arrived smoothly without worrying about getting lost. Unlike the Taushubetsu Bridge, this bridge still retains its former brave appearance and looks like it will remain in good health for a long time! ! I think photos along the river are dangerous when the water is high. Let's explore with safety first. (Original) 2024/10/27/12:30 道路沿いの看板のある駐車場（路側帯？）に駐車し、正規ルートがわからなかった為、笹をかき分け到着。 沢沿いから撮るには靴必須です。 夏はともかく今の時期は藪漕ぎもスネ下位の笹藪なので迷う心配もなくスムーズに到着でした。 タウシュベツ橋梁とは違いこちらはまだまだ昔の勇姿を残しながら長く健在していてくれそうです！！ 川沿いの写真は増水時は危険だと思います。 安全第一で探訪しましょう。

(Translated by Google) About 20 minutes from Mikuni Pass towards National Route 273 Obihiro. There are parking areas on both sides of the road, about 6 km from [Shihoro Line Horoka Station Ruins]. If you walk 60 meters along the one-person-wide road (no signboard) in the direction of the Otofuke River, you will come to the former Shihoro Line promenade [Higashi Taisetsu no Michi]. Gonosawa Bridge Ruins is a few minutes to the right. There is no side path to see the arch bridge. I saw a [deer] on the promenade (Photos: ⑥ and ⑦ are enlarged from ⑥). Because I was wearing a bear bell, the deer ran away within 50 meters. There were 3 cars parked in the parking area, but they were anglers. There were no tourists near [Gonosawa Bridge Ruins]. [Bear warding bell] I heard that [bear] was being sold at a tea house in Mikuni Pass, so I bought it here for (1540 yen). I saw a deer, so I'm glad I bought a bell. (If there are deer, there will be bears.) (Original) 三国峠から国道273号帯広方面へ約20分。［士幌線幌加駅跡］から約6 km程、道路沿い両側に駐車エリアがあります。音更川方向に、一人幅の道（看板無し）を60ｍ行くと、旧士幌線の跡：遊歩道［東大雪の道］に出ます。右に数分で［五の沢橋梁跡］です。アーチ橋を見るための横道ありません。遊歩道で【鹿】を見ました（写真：⑥、⑦は⑥を拡大）。（熊除け鈴）着けていたため鹿は50ｍ程で逃げました。 駐車エリアに3台駐車していましたが、釣り人です。［五の沢橋梁跡］付近には観光客居ませんでした。 【熊除け鈴】、三国峠の茶屋で【熊】出ていると聞き、ここで（1540円）で購入しました。鹿見たので、鈴を購入して良かったです。（鹿居れば、熊居ます。）

(Translated by Google) The babbling sound of the stream over which the bridge is built is very soothing. The path leading up to this point is a straight track track covered in greenery that is soothing and soothing. When going down under the bridge, the footing can be slippery, so be careful. There is a parking lot along the national highway. (Original) 橋が架かる小川のせせらぎが心地良いですね。 ここへ来るまでの緑に覆われた真っ直ぐな線路跡の小径も気持ち良く癒されます。 橋の下へ降りる時は足場が滑りやすいので十分に注意したいですね。 国道沿いに駐車帯があります。

(Translated by Google) You can see it by entering the old railroad tracks from the parking lot and walking on the tracks. If Kumano appears and becomes dangerous, you might not be able to watch it. Nowadays, they seem to be missing out on going under the bridge, so if you check it out now, you can get some good photos. (Original) 駐車場から旧線路の方に入って行って、線路上を歩くと見る事が出来ます。 熊野出没で危険になると観られなくなるかも。 今は、橋の下に降りるのは見逃してくれているみたいですので、今のうちにチェックすると良い写真が撮れます。

Easy activity to do and the staff can explain the instruction well in English. Alrhough the closing time is 4pm but the staff seems not mind to continue if there are customers. Entire activity takes about 30 mins including explanation.

A unique activity in this area, a converted disused train tracks (the current tracks are of course laid on the path and the old tracks removed) with rail cycling (can get quite fast if you cycle hard and exhausting!). It is a little short out and back trail (with turntable) and the fee is rather high but only because only one set of guests can ride it at any one time. Spot the activity with a van (with green flag) parked on the side of a road in a carpark. The activity entrance is located conveniently at the side of the carpark.

Good experience

(Translated by Google) I visited on a weekend, and there were no other customers, so it was like we had the place to ourselves. Personally, I thought it was nice that there was a sign on the roof of a Delica at the entrance. It costs ¥1,500 for one person, and ¥2,000 for two people. It's a flat road that takes just under 10 minutes one way (the old Shihoro Line remains, but the rails were laid for a trolley). At the end of the road, you turn around and head back. It's fun to take turns on the way there and back, with the person at the back pedaling and the person at the front taking pictures. Even children can pedal if they're tall enough. You can't see the lake or other scenery, but the clanging sound of the rails going over the joints is pleasant. You can avoid the sun, but if you don't like bugs, it's a good idea to bring insect repellent. (Original) 週末に訪れましたが、他に客はおらず貸切状態でした。 個人的には入り口のデリカの屋根に看板を掲げているのが素敵でした。 1人だと¥1,500, 2人で乗ると¥2,000 です。 片道10分弱の平坦な道（旧士幌線の跡ですが、レールはトロッコ用に敷かれたもの）です。終点で自分たちで転回して帰ってきます。 後ろの人がペダルを漕ぎ、前の人が撮影する感じで、行きと帰りで交代して乗ると楽しいです。ペダルを漕げる身長があればお子さんでも十分漕げます。 湖などの景色は見えませんが、レールの繋ぎ目を通る時のガタンゴトン音が気持ちいいです。 日差しは避けられますが、虫が苦手な方は虫除けを持参すると安心です。

Accidentally found this interesting bicycle-train-tracks-trolley ride in the forest. It was lots of fun even if it was only a 1km track. We even saw a deer who crossed the tracks! Person-in-charge gave clear instructions with demonstration and a practice session too!

(Translated by Google) Eco Rail is a 500m trolley rail ride where you pedal yourself, make a U-turn and return. A local man personally laid and operates the rails. Apparently it cost several million to lay them. Apparently it's well-established now. (Original) 約500mのトロッコレールを自分で漕いでUターンして戻って来るエコレール。 地元のおじさんが個人でレールを敷き運営している。埋設代は数百万だったとか。 今ではガッチリらしい。

(Translated by Google) Even children can easily pedal and enjoy the ride. First, they will clearly explain how to ride and how to make a U-turn on the other side. (Original) 子どもでも楽に漕いで楽しく進むことができます。 まず乗り方や向こう側でのUターンの仕方をわかりやすく説明してくれます。
