Mysterious Lake MashuThis is a course where you can see Lake Mashu, Mt. Iou, and Lake Kussharo. Mysterious Lake Mashu is worth a visit. Misty Lake Mashu is also famous (as a song says), but on a clear day the blue of the sky is reflected on the lake's surface, creating a spectacular view. Only Mashu No. 1 Observation Deck is available during the winter. On the way to Lake Mashu, you can also get a feel for the vastness of Hokkaido at Tawadaira, where you can see the horizon in a large panorama. You can eat Genghis Khan at Tawadaira. Kushiro City - Hosooka Observation Deck - Tawadaira - Lake Mashu - Mt. Iou - Sunayu, Kotan Onsen (Lake Kussharo) - Kushiro CityThere is also a route where you can see Kaminokoike Pond, which has recently been included in Akan Mashu National Park.

View the Kushiro Marsh from the eastern (western) observation deck, then walk along an unpaved road to the western (eastern) observation deck. If you are confident in your time and stamina, there are also some places you can walk (or climb?) to see, such as the Kottaro Marsh Observation Deck, Sarubo Observation Deck, and Yumegaoka Observation Deck. Along the way, you might encounter red-crowned cranes, Ezo deer, or Ezo red foxes (which appear irregularly).

From Hosooka Observatory (east side), you can see the Kushiro Marsh and the meandering Kushiro River in the Kushiro Marsh, the 28th national park and the largest naturally rich low-lying marsh in Japan with a horizontal spread. The view from Hosooka Observatory, also known as the "Great View," is spectacular, and on a clear day you can see the Akan Mountains. Watching the sunset from Hosooka Observatory has also become popular recently. The untouched Hosooka Observatory is an observation deck that cannot be reached by large tourist buses. There is also a course that combines the Norokko train ride, where you can ride one way through the marsh from Kushiro city to Hosooka Observatory to Kushiro city, and then take a taxi back to see the Kushiro Marsh from a different angle.

When you think of river rafting, you think of summer, but Tokachi River can be enjoyed in winter as well. In early winter, you have a chance to see white-tailed eagles and Steller's sea eagles. The expression standing on the tree is very dignified and cool. The appearance of flying is elegant itself. There is no doubt that even adults will get excited. In addition to eagles, you can also see red-crowned cranes, whooper swans, and ducks. Also, in the midwinter, the rime and rime on cold days are very beautiful. The luxury of being alone in the cold and quiet river is exceptional. Let's enjoy the cold weather perfectly! By all means, please join us with your family, friends, couples, etc. to make memories of Tokachi, Hokkaido! ! *Since it is an experience in nature, we do not guarantee 100% encounters with wild birds. However, there are many opportunities to meet. *Please note that the event may not be held depending on weather conditions and snow conditions.

The Tokachi River flows leisurely. Amazing scenery and encounters with precious wild birds await in the bitter cold of winter. Let's enjoy a nature walk while going down the river! ! White-tailed eagles and Steller's sea eagles come from the vicinity of northern Russia to the Tokachi River, which is rich in nature. In addition, many birds such as red-crowned cranes and whooper swans gather at the Tokachi River. Also, this is the only place where you can see such natural wild birds in only 30 minutes by car from the city of Obihiro! Come on, let's put on our clothes and go see the paradise of wild birds! ! *(Because it is an experience in nature, we cannot guarantee 100% encounters with wild birds.

You can see many red-crowned cranes in eastern Hokkaido around Kushiro, and here you can see the red-crowned cranes vs. food thieves, which you can't see at other feeding sites. Due to bird flu measures, you can no longer see Steller's sea eagles and white-tailed eagles as much as before, but you can see Ezo deer, swans, white-tailed eagles, etc. trying to steal the food from the red-crowned cranes. When they were feeding the cranes with raw fish, this was the only place in the world where you could see the red-crowned cranes vs. eagles fighting over food. (Only during feeding time) There is an admission fee to the Akan International Crane Center (480 yen for adults). I hope that one day I will be able to see the same scene again. Please contact us for details, such as combinations with the Kushiro Station ⇒ Akan International Crane Center ⇒ Kushiro City Tsurui Course.

As the name of the place suggests, Tsurui Village is the best place to see cranes. You can see cranes in a variety of places, such as cranes landing on pure white snow fields, cranes flying in blue skies, and cranes in the river. Kushiro has many sunny days in the winter, so you can take better photos. In the evening, you can also see the cranes, dyed in the setting sun, flying in formation to their roosts. (Depending on the weather) Kushiro city - Tsurui village (Tsurumidai, Ito Sanctuary, Otowa Bridge) - Kushiro city
