2025 Kyogoku Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

At the foot of Mount Yotei, there is a famous water spring park with clear and sweet spring water. Next to the park is Isshin-an, a soba noodle and tempura specialty shop that offers delicious and affordable meals, making it the perfect choice for a midday hunger pang. After strolling through the picturesque Kyogoku Famous Water Park in autumn, our group sought refuge from the snow bugs at the nearby soba noodle shop. In Japan, soba is considered a higher grade compared to ramen and udon, so it often comes with dedicated parking. Possibly the highest-rated restaurant around the famous water park, Isshin-an was bustling with business. After a short wait, we were seated at a table for four and ordered both dry and soup soba, along with fried shrimp, fried squid, and inari sushi. The table was filled with an abundance of food. Mixing grated radish into the sauce and dipping the noodles in it brought back the familiar taste from memory. The high ratings of Isshin-an are well-deserved! The noodles were both tender and chewy, with an excellent texture, and even the tempura was delicious. Highly recommended! Isshin-an 🕰️Business Hours: 11:00-15:00 📍Address: 76-29 Kawanishi, Kyogoku, Abuta District, Hokkaido 044-0131, Japan

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 This is a hidden gem of a shop at the foot of Mt. Yotei, specializing in udon and fried tempura. Don't be fooled by its small size, Udon Nonosan 名水うどん 野々桑 is a popular shop with a long queue in the local area. The country flavor is all about the natural and simple taste. I ordered Chikuwa Udon, which was quite visually conflicting. The deep-fried chikuwa was soft and tender, and paired with the chewy udon noodles, it seemed to be dancing in my mouth, so bouncy and chewy! The thick omelette sprinkled with dried bonito is also very tempting. Meisui Udon Noosa is on the way from Niseko to Meisui Park. It is not very convenient if you don’t drive there yourself, and there are often long queues. If you have the opportunity to pass by, you can try it. #Hokkaido Travel #Mt. Yotei #Famous Water Park #Udon

Roadside Station Meisui no Sato Kyogoku is a roadside station in Kyogoku Town. Of course, the water you can get here is delicious! Delicious water → clean water!! There is also a promenade, where you can enjoy the soothing scenery. I wonder why the sound of water is so soothing❤️ The autumn leaves are turning beautiful colors. #freespot #autumnleaves #roadsidestation

#ShareTravelBudget 🏂🗻 Review of learning to snowboard in Niseko, the first time in my life! With a magnificent view of Mt. Yotei, and share the expenses For those who are interested in learning to snowboard in Japan, let me share my first-hand experience from the two of us who just recently took a Beginner class at Grand Hirafu, Niseko 👇 . 🕘 Join a full-day Group Class for 5.5 hours (10:00-15:30, including a 1-hour lunch break) The class we took had 4 people, so we took turns, so we had some breaks to sit and relax and catch our breath, lol 👨🏫 The teacher I got was Matt, an Australian teacher who taught in English (it was like taking a snowboard class + an English class in one 😂) Matt explained very well, made comparisons easy to understand, and helped correct each person's posture. At first, I was confused by the words heel and hill because I felt dizzy when I heard them quickly. 555 🎿 The area where I studied was very good. I could see the view of Mt. Yotei. It was so cool. There was a magic carpet so I didn't have to drag my board up the hill myself. It saved a lot of energy. . ⚠️ Things to be careful of There were many classes at the same time in the area. There might be a lot of people. You have to avoid them sometimes. . The side of the area has a high slope with only a thin cloth to block it. If you go too fast, you might have to use insurance. 🍛 During lunch break, the restaurant was crowded and the price was quite high (sold in sets according to the time). ✅ A little tip before coming to study, I went to study in Thailand for 1 hour before. It helped a lot! Because I knew the equipment and basics. When you meet the real thing in Japan, you won't be so dizzy. 💸 #Summary of expenses - Snowboarding lessons with Go Snow (Join Group) 5.5 hours — 15,000 yen - Lift Pass Grand Hirafu, Niseko 1 day — 9,500 yen - Full set of equipment rental fee for 1 day — 19,000 yen (including wool hat, gloves, goggles) Average 43,500 yen (~9,900 baht)/person #Chill on a holiday #NisekoSnowboard #Learn to snowboard in Japan #GoSnow #Review of Japan travel #Travel to Japan in winter #Niseko #GrandHirafu #Hokkaido

Hey guys, if you're a ski enthusiast, Niseko in Hokkaido is an absolute must-visit dream destination! I just got back, and I'm still reminiscing about the amazing time I had skiing there. I just have to share this joy with everyone. Niseko is located in Hokkaido, and the most stunning feature here is the incredibly beautiful Mount Yōtei. From afar, Mount Yōtei resembles a massive ice castle, its peak perpetually covered in snow. Bathed in sunlight, it exudes a sacred and captivating glow. Every photo you take here is worthy of sharing on social media. Of course, the biggest draw of Niseko is its four unique ski resorts: Rusutsu Resort, Niseko Annupuri International Ski Area, Niseko Hanazono Resort, and Niseko Village (formerly known as Hirafu). Each resort offers slopes of varying difficulty, so whether you're a beginner or an expert, you'll find something to enjoy.

#skitrip ! Niseko skiing with Mount Yotei, captured a lifetime photo After skiing for a week, there was only one day when the whole mountain was clear and Mt. Yotei could be seen clearly I skied Hanazono, Annupuri, and Moiwa Annupuri and Moiwa are my favorites I didn’t want to go to Hirafu at first The hotel was seriously overpriced The Niseko coach also suggested not to go to Hirafu There were too many people queuing for the cable car, which was a waste of time and the snow trails were also very steep The cable car from Hanazono to the top of the mountain was too complicated and required 4 turns, which was very frustrating and it was basically skating below The cable car from Annupuri to the top of the mountain was very convenient and only required one turn The biggest advantage of Moiwa is that there are fewer people and the snow is powdery, but the trails are short

In January, while other places are still shivering in the cold wind, Sapporo in Hokkaido is a winter wonderland. As a "wild travel guide" who just returned from there, I must share this hot travel guide with you. Preparation: Choose the right gear for double the fun Don't just pack thick clothes when you hear "Hokkaido winter." Honestly, January in Sapporo isn't that cold, but there's a lot of snow, and the roads are as slippery as an ice rink. So, a pair of super non-slip shoes is a lifesaver, allowing you to have fun in the snow without worrying about falling. Hidden Gem Attractions Otaru Station: A Seaside Fairy Tale Otaru Station along the Otaru line is a place favored by God. On one side is the sparkling sea, with gentle waves kissing the shore; on the other side are snow-covered mountains, like giants guarding this peaceful place. The sunlight shines down, and the sparkling sea and the white snow intertwine, creating a breathtaking scene. Every photo is a masterpiece, with no filter needed. Shiroi Koibito Park: A Sweet Dreamland Entering Shiroi Koibito Park is like stepping into a fairy tale book. The air is filled with the sweet aroma of chocolate and cookies, instantly lifting your spirits. Visit the chocolate production line and witness the magical transformation from raw materials to delicious treats; explore the brand story of Shiroi Koibito in the museum. Don't forget to try the limited edition ice cream, with its rich milk flavor and smooth texture, so delicious you'll want to swallow your tongue. Gourmet Delights: The King of Cost-Effectiveness In Sapporo, Genghis Khan BBQ is a must! For just 100 RMB per person, you can eat to your heart's content. The tender lamb sizzles on the grill, with a crispy exterior and juicy interior. Dip it in the special sauce, and the moment it enters your mouth, happiness fills you. Eating meat and drinking wine is what travel should be like. Accommodation Tips For those staying at Vessel Inn, take note! Their breakfast buffet is super rich, with a wide variety to satisfy all tastes. But the reservation process is a bit complicated, requiring advance booking on the official website or by phone, following the steps one by one, no shortcuts. Start your day with a hearty breakfast to kick off a day full of energy. Unexpected Beauty: Encountering Mount Yotei On the way back from Lake Toya, I encountered Mount Yotei at sunset. The golden afterglow shone on the mountain, draping it in a dreamy veil. Unfortunately, it was behind the car, so I couldn't capture it perfectly. But that scene is deeply etched in my mind, becoming the most beautiful surprise of the trip. In January, Sapporo offers beautiful scenery, delicious food, and unforgettable moments. Don't hesitate any longer, pack your bags and set off to embrace your Sapporo winter adventure.

Mount Yotei is nicknamed "Ezo Fuji" because of its resemblance to Mount Fuji. It is 1,898 meters above sea level and has four hiking trails, each of which takes about 4 to 6 hours. From the top of the mountain you can overlook the Sea of ​​Japan and the Pacific Ocean. In summer, about 80 species of alpine plants can be seen near the top of the mountain. #2024TravelReview

This time, I spontaneously decided to go skiing in Hokkaido 🤣 I almost didn't do any research and chose the ski resort just by looking at the scenery. Although the expenses in Niseko are relatively high, I think it's totally worth it to ski with a view of Mount Yotei. Some people mentioned that the slopes here might not be very beginner-friendly, but I felt it was fine. I had a great time learning to snowboard for the first time. If you plan to come here for skiing, I highly recommend staying nearby or in Otaru. Otherwise, it's really far to come from Sapporo 🤣

#Sapporo Attractions The mountains of Yotei Mountain in the golden autumn season show a beautiful scenery that makes me intoxicated. With the arrival of autumn, the leaves on the mountains gradually turn golden and red, as if covering nature with a gorgeous coat. When I stepped onto the hiking trail, the scenery around me was amazing. White clouds floated leisurely in the blue sky, and the mountains rose and fell like waves, forming a moving picture. During the climb, I could hear the gurgling of clear streams, accompanied by the breeze, bringing the fresh breath of nature. The wild flowers on the roadside bloomed in the sunshine, adding a touch of colorful colors to the golden autumn mountains and fields. Whenever I stop, take a deep breath and feel the fragrance of nature, my mind becomes relaxed and released. The beautiful scenery around you after reaching the top is even more amazing. The summit of Mount Yotei provides an excellent viewing platform overlooking the surrounding valleys and streams. The mountains in the distance appear particularly spectacular in the setting sun, like an oil painting. The sky was dyed golden at this time, as if everything was immersed in this peaceful atmosphere.

Do you know what is the most famous thing when you go to Hukidashi Park? It's not a big park, so it's easy to pass by because it's a small park, but the medicinal water is famous. People wait in line to get the medicinal water!! I think the natural environment is very good. It seems to be rich in minerals because of the hot springs. #August Travel Support Fund Event

I visited Fukidashi Park in Sapporo! There were really no people, it was well-managed, and it was peaceful. Especially, Mt. Fuji seen from afar was really amazing… Fukidashi Park where I was felt like spring (April), but Mt. Fuji felt like December because of the perennial snow. Haha #August Travel Support Fund Event

We visited for lunch! A restaurant in a lodge-like building located about 15 minutes by car from the hotel🍽️ The building was really nice and the interior was also lovely🥺 The weather was bad and the place was full of clouds, but there was a panorama of Mt. Yotei, also known as Ezo Fuji, right in front of us The view was so dynamic that it was hard to believe it was a place to eat👀 They seem to be very particular about the ingredients they use for the food, and although I had soup curry this time, the farmer's lunch looked delicious too, so I had a really hard time deciding...!! I'd love to visit again and enjoy the food🥰 Also, the staff were very kind and polite, which warmed my heart! I discovered a great restaurant with great taste, great location, and great people 💡 🕰️Business hours: 11:30-15:00 (closed on Tuesdays) 📍Address: 470-3 Koushin, Kyogoku-cho, Abuta-gun, Hokkaido 044-0132 🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: Large fireplace and panoramic view of Mt. Yotei #0 yen trip
