Tour Highlights
- Lake Kussharo was formed by a volcanic eruption, so there are many hot springs gushing out along the lake.
- Some hot springs can only be accessed from the water, so explore Lake Kussharo and visit these hidden hot springs!
- On a day with steady winds we’ll head to Oyakotsu Jigoku, at the tip of the Wakoto Peninsula, to make hot spring eggs!
Have you ever wanted to see the cherry blossoms from a canoe? Now’s your chance! Come enjoy canoeing on Lake Kussharo, a caldera lake formed by a volcanic eruption!
Natural “Ezoyamazakura” cherry trees grow on the Wakoto Peninsula, and in some years you can see cherry blossoms as early as early May. How about enjoying cherry blossom viewing on the lake in Hokkaido? Come explore Lake Kussharo’s Wakoto Peninsula by canoe!
The beautiful emerald green water is a site to behold. On a calm day we will row to the tip of the peninsula and head for Oyakotsu Jigoku, a hidden hot spring that can only be reached by water!
We hope you’ll experience the transparency of Lake Kussharo’s water, the power of the volcano, and the pleasant breeze!
