Hokkaido | A winter ski/hot spring invitation
Winter, December to February, is the best season for skiing and hot springs♨ in Hokkaido. Landing in Sapporo from 🛬New Chitose Airport, you are invited to a Hokkaido rendezvous.
🗓Recommended itinerary:
First route: Skiing⛷ route, centered around Sapporo, soaking in the resort and ski slopes. Sapporo Teine Ski Resort, the closest to Sapporo. Niseko Higashiyama Ski Resort, with excellent snow quality and slopes. Hoshino Resorts TOMAMU Ski Resort has quality powder snow, and the resort itself is also worth exploring, of course, the price is also beautiful.
Second route: Hot springs♨ route, Sapporo-Otaru-Noboribetsu. Entering Noboribetsu Hell Valley, you can smell and see the natural sulfur hot springs. Different from domestic ones, the hot springs here are separated by gender, and bathing is done naked.
Third route: Snow viewing❄ route, Sapporo-Furano-Biei-Asahikawa. In winter, the trees in Biei sing a lonely song, while the penguins🐧 in Asahikawa perform a joyful symphony.
✈️How to buy discount tickets:
Domestic flights can take off or transfer from Shandong. Shandong Airlines to Japan is considered a budget airline, and sometimes round-trip tickets are less than a thousand.
🏨How to choose accommodation:
For skiing⛷, stay directly at the ski resort, and you can stock up in advance during major OTA promotions, especially at Hoshino Resorts TOMAMU Ski Resort.
For hot springs♨, Otaru can be a day trip, and Noboribetsu is recommended for Dai-ichi Takimotokan, a more established hot spring hotel, with tatami rooms, including dinner buffet, room service, and hot springs.
