Furano Ski Resort

Furano is the northernmost Prince Snow Resorts. The ski resort consists of 2 zones, Furano and Kitanomine, which have 23 trails in total. You can reach the summit directly by a 101 passenger Furano Ropeway and see a great view of the Daisetsu Mountain Range. There are 2 ski-in ski-out Prince Hotels at the bottom of each area, in which you can enjoy après. Hot springs near the ski area and sightseeing in Furano town are also fun experiences.

If you are looking for a place to ski with powder snow in Hokkaido, this ski resort is highly recommended. I went to Furano ski resort in January 2019. This ski resort is a pretty quiet ski resort with barely having any queues on the ski lift. The most amazing thing is the spectacular view on the top of the slopes but sometimes the weather on the high slopes can be hard to see. This place has 2 big mountains with various mixes of ski slopes suitable for beginner skiers and snowboarders. The food on the slopes were actually pretty delicious. With a variety of food to choose from, I assure you that you will have lots of energy to hit the slopes once more. Overall, this ski resort is very good and also family friendly. Want to ski on great powder snow, this place is also a great choice as well.

Hokkai Heso Matsuri

This summer festival is held in Furano, famous for its lavender fields and as the setting of the TV drama, Kita no kuni kara (From the North Country). The Hokkaido Heso Festival began based on the idea that "the sign marking the center of the body is the navel (heso)," an extension of a concept in Furano's Citizen's Charter established in 1969, which stated, "We are the citizens of Furano, which stands as a sign marking the center of Hokkaido." One of the highlights is the Heso Odori, a dance performed by dancers with faces painted on their torsos. In the early days of the festival there were not enough dancers, but in recent years it has become a huge event with as many as 4,000 dancers performing for 70,000 spectators. It will next be held on July 28th-29th alongside the festival regularly held at Kitamasa Jinja (popularly referred to as Heso Jinja).

Right opposite new prince hotel. This place has many small wooden huts selling hand made crafts. Good for souvenir shopping. The place itself looks magical. Like right out of Frozen or Klaus
