Overview
Seven days across Hokkaido during peak autumn. Noboribetsu's Jigokudani Hell Valley, cable car up Sounkyo for reds and golds, Furano's Blue Pond and Shirahige Waterfall, Otaru Canal, Shiroi Koibito Park. Three nights in Sapporo, two nights at hot spring resorts.
Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- Walk Otaru's canal at sunset, snow settling on the old warehouses, then warm up with fresh crab at the 3-type buffet back at the hotel.
- Ride the cable car into Sounkyo Valley while the maples are peak orange, then stand at the base of Ginga Waterfall where the spray is cold enough to sting.
- Soak in an onsen at Lake Toya with the whole group, everyone awkward for the first five minutes, then nobody wanting to leave.
- Blue Pond lives up to the photos. The water actually glows cyan, fed by Shirahige Waterfall's aluminum hydroxide runoff.
- The tour leader books the bus to Hoheikyo Dam so nobody has to figure out rural Hokkaido transit during leaf season.
