Houheikyou Dam (豊平峡ダム)
4.5
Dam in Shikotsu Toya National Park in Sapporo, Hokkaido. An arch concrete dam constructed as flood control for the Toyohira River and to generate hydropower. The park is a wildlife reserve so tourists can only access it via the electric bus and on foot. It is also an incredibly popular spot for fall leaf viewing, making fall the busiest time of the year.

以前、週末に訪れた際は渋滞で1時間以上動けないこともあったので、時間にゆとりを持つことと、マイカーでの移動はお勧めできない。

Hokkaido Areas

Not just a prefecture but an island of its own, Hokkaido is the most northerly prefecture and island of the Japanese archipelago. Arriving in Hokkaido, which is rural and bursting with breathtaking nature, means entering a world where vast national parks, towering mountains, and natural hot springs can be found at every turn. Come December, these natural splendors freeze over and morph into a winter wonderland.
