This limited-time small-group day tour from Sapporo covers Hokkaido's winter highlights in one day. Walk through steaming Noboribetsu Jigokudani (Hell Valley), then take in sweeping views of the non-freezing lake from Lake Toya and the Silo Observatory. At Snow World Toya you can ride a snowmobile if you wish (at your own expense), and the trip ends at the Lake Shikotsu Ice Festival, where giant ice sculptures glow. There is plenty of free time for sightseeing and photos.
Depart from the group bus stop at the North Exit of Sapporo Station and head first to Noboribetsu Jigokudani. Spend about 40 minutes walking through the valley, where steam and sulfur fumes rise all day long. Eleven hot springs, each with different properties, gush from cracks in the rust-red rocks, creating a unique geothermal landscape.
Lake Toya, the ninth-largest lake in Japan, is also the northernmost lake in Japan that does not freeze. This caldera lake, formed by a volcanic eruption tens of thousands of years ago, stretches about 11 km east to west and about 9 km north to south, dotted with islands including Nakajima. Spend about 20 minutes at the lakeside and about 20 minutes at the Silo Observatory on the high ground west of the lake, enjoying panoramic views.
Stay about 70 minutes at Snow World Toya, a snowmobile base in Toyako Town. On the course that winds along forest trails up to a mountain top, you can race across the snow with views of Lake Toya and distant Mt. Yotei. Snowmobiling is optional and at your own expense.
Finally, spend about 1 hour at the Lake Shikotsu Ice Festival on the shore of Lake Shikotsu in Chitose. Large, crystal-clear ice sculptures made by freezing lake water are on display, earning it the nickname "Ice Art Museum." The festival is held for only about a month each year, from late January to mid-February. The tour ends back at the original meeting point.
