Hokkaido is a region of rugged beauty, warm people, rich culture, and some of the freshest cuisine available in Japan. A place that is in harmony with nature, it is easy to lose oneself in the deep forests, towering mountain peaks, and clear waters of this region.

Beneath the fiercely azure sky that has earned the moniker “Yatsugatake Blue,” is a land of rich nature, rustic vineyards, and mountain top views that see the land and sky disappear into each other.

From the soil of Niseko comes the rich bounty of the region. A land of fields and farmers framed by the mountain and blue sky, there are a myriad of activities, locations, and dishes to connect visitors with the culture and beauty of the area.

The areas that are now Akan-Mashu National Park and Kushiro Shitsugen National Park have long been inhabited by the local Ainu.
