Things to do in Noboribetsu

The Bear Park is one of my favourite places visited in Japan. In order to get there, you have to take a gondola. It will set you back 3,200 yen for adults. The park has multiple bear enclosures. While the bears are really cute, we have to be careful not to go overly close. Apart from seeing the bears, we also got to feed them with delicious treats. The feeding experience was such a unique one! There is also an informative museum where you can learn more about bears. For those who enjoy collecting stamps, you can also get a stamp from the museum.

Located in Noboribetsu, the beautiful and spectacular Noboribetsu Hell Valley is a scenic area. Formed by volcanoes, this valley is blessed with hot springs reaching temperatures of 80 degrees Celsius. The scent of sulfur can be smelled from time to time, and even the hot springs have a yellowish color. The magnificent Oyunuma Pond is truly breathtaking, making it a must-see. Noboribetsu Hell Valley truly lives up to its reputation!

the town is nice and of cos onsen is the most famous experience there , the snowy atmosphere is great for the onsen, good for going

This was our first stop on our Hokkaido trip. It was only a ten-minute bus ride from the Noboribetsu Daiichi Ryuhonkan. The weather was sunny and snowing heavily that day. The Edo-era Japanese architecture in the scenic area was incredibly charming and unforgettable. The NPCs were also very kind and polite. When my hat fell off, someone picked it up and even brushed off the snow before handing it to me. They were very courteous.

If you go down a little past the Second Observatory, you will see the main observatory. I was grateful to the gentleman managing the Jigok Valley at the entrance sign here for taking photos for me when needed. You can think of the Jigok Valley as getting closer in the order of Second Observatory -> This Observatory -> Jigok Valley.

Walking along the mountain from Jigokudani, we arrived at another scenic spot formed by volcanoes - Oyunuma. A hot spring stream overflowing from Oyunuma is available for tourists to soak their feet. The black volcanic mud inside is very comfortable to soak in.

I have to give this ski resort a 7-star rating [Clap][Clap][Clap] I did a lot of research before coming to Noboribetsu Onsen. I thought that as a novice, I would find a small ski resort to practice first. We started from Noboribetsu Daiichi Takimoto Onsen Hotel, and it takes 5 minutes to walk to Noboribetsu Onsen Bus Stop. You can buy tickets on the spot. It costs 480 yen per person to go to the ski resort (it is recommended to buy the ticket in advance to save the change when getting off the bus). Japanese buses are very punctual. The last stop is the ski resort at 9:25. It takes 3 minutes to walk after getting off the bus. Let's talk about the process of the ski resort in detail. The ski ticket is free. If you come for the first time, it is recommended to rent all the equipment inside, including snow suits, hats, gloves, socks and snow goggles. Because the ski resort has limited staff, it is recommended to register your name before entering the door. You will confirm all the contents you need to rent, pay, and get the equipment. It has taken almost 30 minutes to get here, so remember to register your name when you enter the door. After getting the equipment, you can go out to learn by yourself. There are also coaches to ask. Because I have skied several times in China and there are language communication problems, I finally decided to explore it myself. After playing for a morning and feeling that I can go to the intermediate slope, I can go to buy a cable car ticket. We bought 11 times for 3,000 yen per person, but I only used it 5 times in fact. The physical strength consumed by skiing once is still very large. The lunch at the ski resort tastes good, but the machine is operated in Japanese, which is a headache. I found a compatriot to unlock the order. Finally, I want to give a big praise to the staff here. My husband accidentally dropped his mobile phone when he was changing clothes, and I lost my gloves on the cable car. In the end, the staff helped to find them. The ski resort ended at 4 o'clock. I saw netizens saying that the ski resort can help take a taxi, but it is actually difficult. An uncle took us to the hotel for free. Thank you very much. The favorability of this place has increased a lot instantly.
