Lake Akan
Punch a super dream hot spring, you can take a hot spring with the swan! The eastern traffic of Hokkaido is extremely inconvenient, but for this super beautiful hot spring that can be soaked with swan, we first take JR and then transfer to the bus, then chartered to go, but it is not a trip, Akan Lake is really beautiful!
This hot spring is called Gudan Hot Spring. It is located on the shore of Qushui Road in Hokkaido and can only be driven by car or chartered.
The spa is not big, it is open-air, and it is free of charge! This hot spring is forbidden to bare bubbles, so be sure to bring a swimsuit. There are two small houses next to the hot springs that can change clothes, divided into men and women, and there are public toilets in the parking lot not far away.
We arrived at around 9 in the morning, and there was no one at all. There will be a group of swans playing outside the hot springs, and its a dream to take pictures.
Recommendation:
Before 10 o'clock in the morning and one hour before sunset, it is better to go to the light.
Equipment:
Swimwear, towels (all of which must be provided)
Traffic:
Sit JR to Kushiro, on the left side of the station No. 15 and other buses, there are not many flights, to be advanced Buy tickets at the station and go to the hotel on Lake Akan, 2,700 yen per person. We booked a chartered one-day tour online, and the return route was from Akan-Lake Road. In the peak season, the chartered car was 3,800 RMB. The result was a small tourist car (a dozen small buses).
Seeing the Swan
Chu Lulu Lake on the shore of the Kussharo Lake is the largest lake in the Akanmo Week National Park. There are several hot springs on the southeast side that can be bathed. In winter, the lake will freeze, but because there are hot springs in the ground, some of the high-heated ice melts, and four to five hundred swans inhabit each year.
First come to the sand soup. There is a hot spring pouring out of the sand at the lakeside. If you are interested, you can dig a pool to make an open-air hot spring. Although the weather was good, the wind blew very cold, and almost thought that the swan would not be able to skip this place, and it was hiding on the other side. The nearby store can buy salt-free popcorn to feed the swan.
Then go to Gome Hot Springs. This open-air hot spring facing the Kussha Lake has been cleaned regularly by locals. The dressing room is divided into men and women. The pool is one, with a rock partition in the middle. You can wear a towel or bathrobe to soak. Looking at the scenery of the distant mountains is very beautiful, the swan is swimming around, but the winter is too cold, quickly pat the swan, wrap the clothes on the body, no courage to make hot springs.
Eastern Hokkaido is truly worth it! It fulfills all your fantasies about Hokkaido.
Hokkaido in winter offers more than just the snow in Otaru❄️. There are hot springs and nature, where you can see red-crowned cranes dancing gracefully in the snow, soak in natural hot springs accompanied by swans🐦, and take an icebreaker cruise to witness the vast drift ice... Experience the charm of Hokkaido💖~
⛺【Must-Visit Spots】:
🕊Red-Crowned Crane Natural Park
A natural monument of Japan, the red-crowned cranes with their red crowns and pure white feathers dance elegantly in the snow, showcasing their graceful and noble posture.
💦Kotan Onsen
When the lake surface is frozen and mist surrounds, the best time to visit Kotan Onsen is at dusk. Soak in the warm natural sand bath while watching the sunset, experiencing the exclusive romance of Hokkaido.
🚎Happiness Station
Located in Obihiro's Kofukucho, Happiness Station, though now a disused station, still attracts many visitors to take photos and pray for happiness for themselves and their families.

The Kushiro Marsh Observatory
#japantrip Nice facility with interesting showcases of the local wildlife. Short walk to a separate viewing platform but everything is very far away and onsite binoculars cost 100yen for one minute of viewing. When you get here go to the toilets and follow the path next to them, the view is quite vast though with not much detail. I enjoyed the bouncyness of the wooden walk way.

Akan Lake, also known as Lake Akan, is a stunning crater lake located in Akan Mashu National Park on Japan's northern island of Hokkaido. Renowned for its crystal-clear waters and picturesque natural surroundings, the lake is a popular destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. One of the lake's unique features is its marimo, rare spherical algae that are a designated national treasure in Japan. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, including sightseeing cruises, fishing, and hiking in the surrounding forested areas. The nearby town of Akanko Onsen offers hot springs and traditional ryokan inns, providing a perfect blend of relaxation and cultural experience. Lake Akan's serene beauty and unique ecological significance make it a must-visit destination in Hokkaido.
Kushiro Art Museum, Hokkaido
#thingstodo I saw the commemorative exhibition. It was interesting to see that there were photographs in the collection, as well as works related to the region. There seemed to be some projects that locals could enjoy. This is a facility you would want to visit if you were local.There are many exhibits that are not available at other museums.
There is a paid exhibition room on the 1st floor.
A hall where concerts can be held.
stand.
Free exhibition room.
And so on.
On the second floor is a small library room.
Cafe. There are drinks such as coffee in the cafe.
Cookies, subs, toast.
In addition, the toast set can be combined with potage, consommé, coffee, etc.
Toast is 450 yen with your choice of butter or jam.
It's relaxing and relaxing.
There are also menus tailored to events, so it's fun.
Take your kids to Hokkaido for snow chasing! These off-the-beaten-path travel destinations are worth a visit!
Take your kids to Hokkaido for snow chasing! These off-the-beaten-path travel destinations are worth a visit!
Here's a guide for you!
·
❗️Key questions:
1️⃣Is it cold:
As a Shenzhen resident, I sincerely feel that Hokkaido is not that cold! I brought a few packs of warm babies, and I didn't use them much because it was hot later. The outdoor time is relatively short, we often play outside for a while and then go indoors to warm up (the mall convenience store is super hot!) The last day of cooling and blowing is really cold~
2️⃣What to wear
Down jacket + thermal pants (leg magic) + thin sweater + waterproof pants + waterproof snow boots; remember to wear a hat, scarf, gloves and earmuffs!
3️⃣Our route: Sapporo——Otaru——Kushiro——Lake Mashu——Lake Akan——Abashiri Drift Ice Ship——Sapporo
4️⃣Transportation:
Renting a car in Japan is not convenient, we chose public transportation for the whole journey!
✨City movement: We bought the JR Hokkaido Pass five-day ticket on Klook, directly exchanged the physical ticket at Sapporo Station and reserved the designated seat tickets from Sapporo to Kushiro and Abashiri back to Sapporo, during which you can take JR's tram at will, very cost-effective! (Last picture)
✨Kushiro-Lake Mashu-Lake Akan: We booked the Lake Akan sightseeing bus in advance, got on the bus at Kushiro bus station at 8:30, visited several attractions such as Sunayu, Sulfur Mountain, Lake Mashu, etc., and then arrived at Lake Akan Hot Spring Hotel♨️
·
👉Recommend a few places I love:
📍Otaru
Junji Iwai shot the movie 'Love Letter' in Otaru, Hokkaido, Otaru in the snow, unrealistically romantic!
📍Kushiro
Eastern Hokkaido, compared to Sapporo and Otaru, it is more off-the-beaten-path, fewer tourists, but the scenery is incredibly stunning! Tsurumidai, Sunayu are suitable for children, you can see red-crowned cranes and swans up close; you can also see Sulfur Mountain up close
📍Lake Akan
Famous hot spring street, it's super comfortable to soak in the hot spring while enjoying the snow
📍Abashiri
You must experience the sea ice ship once! Every February, drift ice appears along the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, and you can take a drift ice ship from Abashiri to enjoy this spectacle, it's particularly shocking!
Embark on the most primitive journey in Hokkaido to explore unknown territories
❄️When it comes to Hokkaido, people always think of powder snow, hot springs, and colorful lights.🌲However, in the World Heritage Shiretoko Peninsula, Akan Mashu National Park and Kushiro Wetland in the east of Hokkaido, the tranquility and primitiveness covered by the original forest are the real charm of Hokkaido.

There are fifteen species of cranes in the Tsurumi to see the red-crowned cranes
the world. There are three kinds of cranes in Japan, and only the red-crowned cranes breed. They are concentrated in the eastern part of Hokkaido. Because of the lack of food in winter, they are artificially feeding in Heju Village from November to March of the following year. During this period, they have the opportunity to see wild red-crowned cranes. There are three choices for watching cranes: Tsurumi-Tai, Toba-bashi, and Tsurui-Ito-Dragon-Crane Center. The Yinyu Bridge had to pass before sunrise, and the center of the Ito Danding Crane was far away. Finally, Tsurumi Station was chosen.
When you get off the bus, you will see a lot of cranes! Although everyone was very excited, they remained quiet and were afraid of disturbing these birds. The distance is still a little far away. If you use telephoto, you can make it very clear, or you can take a telescope. The crane spends most of its time eating food, occasionally flying, and the posture is beautiful. I didnt pay attention when I took the photo. Later I saw that some of them were chicks, and there was no red color on the top of the head~
Speaking of the Akan Lakeside Hot Spring Hotel, the most famous one is the A Han He Ya Zhuang Zhuang Zuo, who shoots "You Are the One", but this hotel has few rooms and does not accept children under the age of thirteen. If you bring a baby, you can consider another hotel in the group - You Jiuzhi.
The hotel is connected to the sister wing of Heya. When you walk into the lobby, you will feel the more lively atmosphere of the resort, which is completely different from the quietness of the squatting seat. Fully equipped with a number of shops, including the specialty sports brand THE NORTH FACE. In addition to the buffet and restaurant, there is also a local cuisine and ramen shop.
Received several redemption vouchers at check-in, useful for drinks at dinner, drinks vouchers for dinner after dinner, soba noodles at night, and ice cream in the refrigerator!
If you are not staying, the Nisshin Hot Springs service is also available here. On the top of the building, there is a big bathing place, "Tianfu's Soup". To go up a spiral staircase, it takes some courage in winter~
Visitors who have not been to Hokkaido may not know the name of "He Ya". This hotel group developed only in Hokkaido is famous for "If You Are the One". The hotel where Feng Xiaoxiao stayed in the movie is the group's Akan Lake. The seat of the cockroach.
"" is the meaning of missing hometown in Japanese. Walking into the hotel lobby, the dark-toned environment creates a calm atmosphere, and the wood carving crafts everywhere can reflect local characteristics.
There are shops, small library rooms and other facilities on the ground floor. The outside is full of soup, which is a bit cold in winter. In addition, some drinks in the bar and drinks from the restaurant are free.
A total of 25 rooms, each with an open air, but the five types of landscapes are divided into lake side, side view, street side, since it is definitely preferred to the lake side. Looking through the large window to the Akan Lake, the feeling of time lapse is too beautiful.
To ask what color is the water in Mo Zhou Lake, the answers are different in different seasons and different angles, and it may not be seen at all! Some official websites call it "the last sanctuary on the ground", although exaggerated, it also highlights its mystery.
This volcanic lake is 351 meters above sea level, the deepest part is 211.4 meters, and the area is larger than the Akan Lake. Surrounded by cliffs of three or four hundred meters, it is said to be the most transparent lake in the world because it does not flow in and out without impurities.
There is often fog on the lake, especially in June and July (see Figure 9). There is an old song called "Mo Zhou Lake in the fog", and there are several legends about the fog of Mo Zhou Lake. If a couple can't see the lake because of the fog, it will last for a long time. If the unmarried person sees the lake without fog, What will delay the wedding period, may be to comfort the visitors who can not see the scenery here.
On the shores of Lake Akan, there is a village of Ainu Lake, which is the village of the Ainu people of Hokkaido. Today, there are about 200 Ainu people living here, the largest number in Hokkaido.
Akan Lake is located in the eastern part of Hokkaido, Japan. It is a crater lake with a circumference of 30 kilometers, an altitude of 420 meters and a water depth of 45 meters. There are big islands, small islands, yahita islands, and loyal islands on the lake. The island is beautiful and beautiful. It is the mysterious lake where the natural monument, Chlorella, grows.
It takes 1 hour and 25 minutes to take a tour around the lake. On the way, there is a Chlorella exhibition observatory on the loyalty island. Lakeside Hot Springs is one of the famous hot spring resorts in Daodong.
The cafeteria here is also very good, very large, the dishes are very complete, the most loved fresh shrimp, it is really Hokkaido, eating seafood is really very fresh.
It is recommended to have a Sapporo beer. The beer here is the most famous. To eat more Arctic shrimp, it is really big.
When it comes to Japan, people will think of the Yamato nation. In fact, Japan is not a single-ethnic country. Apart from the ethnic group, there is also a little-known minority. This is the Ainu
Ainu people living in the Hokkaido area. Handicrafts, traditional songs, religious ceremonies, etc., to explain to the world the meaning of "Ainu". The origins of the
Ainu people are still unknown. They have European faces, prominent brows and thick hair, which are completely different from the appearance of the surrounding East Asian people. Their language is in the Malay Polynesian language. Many Japanese names such as "Sapporo" and "Small" are derived from Ainu. Currently, only Eskimos and American Indians in the world still use the language. They are considered to be the only indigenous people in Japan who once occupied Japan, and were gradually expelled by Chinese, Korean, Mongolian, Malay, and Indonesian people in the Northeast, and now living in northern Japan.
The classic old work "Happiness Yellow Handkerchief", some of the scenes in the movie were selected in Akan Lake. At that time, there was only a lonely hotel on the shore of Lake Akan, and the surrounding area was ridiculous.
Who would have thought that after decades, because Feng Xiaogang, the Chinese director, made the town famous, perhaps half of them knew Hokkaido. Today, resort-style spa hotels are located on the lakeside, and Lake Akan is also a popular place.
Ahan Town is a very small town, famous for its Akan Lake. The whole town is a Y-shaped street, adding up to a total length of 100 meters.
A cold town in the evening has a charm, fresh air, quiet streets, making us feel comfortable all year round in a smoggy, suffocating city. Although the town is relatively remote, the street lights are a little dim, there are almost no people on the street, and occasionally they drive through a car, but our foreigners are not nervous at all on strange roads. As we walked and walked, the Japanese-style hotels here mostly featured first-class hot spring baths, and there were few local specialties in the shops.
Hokkaido in winter is always a plan to keep up with the changes.
Original plan: JR Kushiro to Chuanyu Hot Springs for sightseeing bus.
Actual: Because of the blizzard, all the cars stopped. JR stopped at the Mozhan Station in advance. We were trapped at the Mo Zhou Station. The staff said that all the buses to Lake Mashu in the afternoon were gone. There is no taxi in this place. You can only wait for the Meiliu and Line bus to Chuantang Hot Spring Station in the afternoon.
Today's itinerary is a bubble. All the attractions along the Mo Zhou Lake and Chuan Tang Hot Springs are closed. We went to a place, 2 km from Chuantang Hot Spring Station and a round trip to Sulphur Mountain.
Kawagawa Onsen Station is a very small unmanned station. There is no staff in the small station. There is no heating. There is only one small restaurant. There is a timetable in the restaurant. Fortunately, there is a hot spring near the station. The pool, finally, drove the cold of the body. Although the small station is small, there is no train passing after the station is closed, so you can take pictures as much as you can. After dark, the station was getting colder and colder, and the temperature of the phone showed 12 degrees below zero.
Tsurumi, Hokkaido, Kushiro.
In advance, just check how to get to Tsurumi, because there are many places to shoot in Kushiro, the famous Baoding Dinghe Nature Park, Akan International Crane Center and so on.
There are more old masters in the International Crane Center, and the equipment is professional. However, Tsurumi said that from the morning I saw the situation, there are not many people, relatively clean, plus less than one hour of public transportation, it is very convenient (in front of Kushiro Station, take the crane line You can go).
Then, shooting in Hokkaido in winter, keeping the camera warm, keeping the battery warm... Then take the red-crowned crane, or 600 fixed focus... otherwise it is a bit painful...
In short, I will come again .
I like nature and peace of life. In Hokkaido in winter, there are some snowy clouds in the snow, and there are some light figures in the snow-covered snow. It is a world-famous protected animal red-crowned crane known as Japans special natural monument. Because of the love and care of the locals, the number of red-crowned cranes in the world is decreasing, and the number of red-crowned cranes in Hokkaido is increasing year by year. Every winter is the best time for many Japanese and foreign tourists to come to enjoy the cranes. The most famous view of the crane in the village is the Yinyu Bridge. To catch the crane dance in the early morning fog, it must be earlier than the bird, helpless, we are not allowed to schedule this trip, we can only leave the regret for the next time.
Hezu Village's Tsuruga Terrace is also a famous place for cranes. It is a private territory, so it can only be shot outside the fence. Under the blue sky, three cranes pass from the top of the head from time to time. They gathered in an open space and took them with their long legs. They were leisurely and squatting, not afraid of people. They used long, pointed foods to carefully prepare the corn for them. And the earth whisper whisper, a harmony, earth silent, red-crowned crane silent, serene still.
Lake Mashu is located in a lake in the Kawasaki-cho, Kawakami-gun, in the eastern part of Hokkaido, Japan. It is a volcanic lake and is the most transparent lake in Japan. It was listed as a Hokkaido heritage in 2001. When I went, it was cold, although the cold wind blew my whole person frozen, but it was amazing when I saw the quiet and sacred Lake Mashu.
It is said that there is not much time when Lake Mu Zhou can see the whole picture all year round. If you are lucky enough to see the Lake of the Week at the sunny day, this is very lucky~
What is unique about Hokkaido is the traditional Ainu village watching traditional dance performances.
Little is known about the Ainu (I also asked the next mother..) The Ainu people have been living in Hokkaido and the northeastern Japan, the land of Tokushima and other places.
Ainu people have long been engaged in fishing and hunting, and most of them later turned to farming. In ancient times, it used to be dressed in bird feathers, animal skins, and fish skins; Good at making and driving canoes. There are unique wooden huts. Today's clothing, food, housing and transportation have nothing to do with the Japanese. The content of the
dance performance is basically to show the usual life of the Ainu people: hunting, cooking and cooking, and finally the participation of everyone to dance together is quite interesting.
When you come to Lake Akan, you will naturally come to the movie "If You Are the One". Those who have seen this movie may remember the hot spring hotel where Qin Fen and Xiao Xiao stayed: the Akan Heya Villa, the sacred forest surrounded by the Aboriginal people.
Heiya Group is a group specializing in medium and high-end hot spring hotels in Hokkaido. There are three hotels under the group in Akan Lake, which are the seat of the scorpion, the sacred place, the wing of Heya, the price From high to low.
is the hotel where Shu Qi was filmed when he was shooting "Do Not Disturb". It is often difficult to find a room. The house is tense. The price per night is about 4K-5K (2 people, including breakfast and dinner).
Step into the seat of the scorpion, in the "Deer of the Deer Soup", soaked in the feet, overlooking the Akan Lake view. Inheriting the traditional charm, the entire hotel can be barefoot.
We have chosen the mid-price range for a long time, with private soup may be 5k+ per night
Akan Lake Hot Spring Street, there is a strange place, the indigenous village of the Ainu. The venison variety that can be eaten in Hokkaido is Shrimp Yilu, which was once known as Shrimp in Hokkaido. The number of deer stag deer living in Hokkaido is estimated to be about 560,000 in 2013. According to Hokkaido's plan, the target was reduced to 380,000 in 2016 and the impact on the environment was verified. I checked the history. It is reported that in 2013, Hokkaido collected a total of 130,000 heads, of which one third was used for food. Even if you feel that the number of venison consumed per year is huge, in Hokkaido cuisine, venison is one of the characteristics to be carefully searched for.
Akan Lake is home to many Aboriginal Ainu people, so you can taste the freshest and authentic venison dishes here. The venison rice bowl is the main push, and the large pieces of venison and onions are quickly fried, and the gravy is covered with the rice. The venison has a lot of lean meat and tastes a bit like beef, but it has no astringency and a rough taste, and it tastes a little sweeter than beef.
Within Hokkaido, there are no fewer than ten hot spring holy sites, such as Noboribetsu, Dingshanxi, Shishengchuan, Ranbe, Chuantang, and Akan. Akan Hot Spring is located on the shores of Lake Akan, and there are oversized hotels in Heya Group.
Nobel Prize winner Mo Yan, once stayed at the Akan Lake, Akan, a long time, Heya.
Checkin in the VIP area, you will begin to experience the delicate Japanese service, the first to taste the traditional Japanese matcha and dessert. Immediately led by the kindly kimono Auntie, the room in the lake was very nice, and I was glad that I finally decided to raise my budget to live in this lake view room.
Enter the room, there is limited ice cream in the refrigerator, and black tea and Japanese fruit are prepared on the table. The room is divided into two parts, the room and the room, and the tatami room can be used for two beds, and the foreign room area has two single beds. During the day and the room area, it becomes a living room. From the large windows, you can see A Han Yue, soak a pot of hot tea, enjoy the snow scene, and you don't have to feel the cold, very comfortable.
The whole afternoon, playing snow, bathing, enjoying the scenery in front of the hotel, the time is slowing down.
Youjiuzhi and the wing of Heya next door, the two hotels are connected on the first floor, a total of four hot spring baths. It is especially recommended to visit the large bathing area on the first floor. There are not only four or five bathing pools, but also a few steps away from the open air. The open air of this bath is very quaint and is within easy reach of Lake Akan. First, soak the heat in the room, then soak it to the outside, and enter the water for a moment, especially satisfied. From the open air, the Akan Lake has been covered with snow, and the Aohan Mountain is not far away.
Located in the eastern part of Hokkaido, Akanmo Week National Park is made up of many volcanoes, lakes and virgin forests. It is no exaggeration to describe the scenery here. The most famous of them are the three major lakes: Akan Lake, Kussharo Lake, and Ma Zhou Lake.
Chu Lulu Lake is the largest and most beautiful of the three major lakes. Most of the tourist attractions are gathered around this lake. The accommodation here is mainly based on the hotel.
Akan Lake is the most concentrated place to stay. The hot spring hotels here are everywhere, and the facilities are perfect. It is the preferred place for many tourists.
