Nishiokoppe, Hokkaido
May. 24, 2024
How do you get there from Sapporo? A friend is going to visit and asked, “How can I get to Nishiokoppe?” so I made this guide!! The Nishiokoppe Village website lists access information, but I summarized fares and travel times in a table, so please use this as a reference. If you drive, using the expressway takes about four hours. If you use public transport, transfer waiting times can add up, so it may take half a day. This time I’ll introduce a route combining train and bus and a route using buses only. I think the route via Nayoro is the easiest, but there are also express buses from Sapporo to Monbetsu, so coming via Monbetsu is another option. The only public transport serving Nishiokoppe Village is buses.🚌 Roads are safely maintained in winter, so you can ride with confidence. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us. And please feel welcome to come and visit Nishiokoppe Village! #Nishiokoppe Village #Hokkaido #Sapporo #Access #Public transport #Bus #Express bus #JR #Limited express

Yesterday, tourism association staff accompanied members of the Shintoku Mountaineering Club and the police to Komadori-sawa, the midpoint, to carry out marking work to prevent hikers from getting lost on the trail up Mt. Tomuraushi. They marked two guiding arrows and a ❌ sign indicating impassable sections on the snow using red lime. With the summer mountain season approaching, we hope people enjoy Mt. Tomuraushi with a realistic climbing plan and adequate equipment. Also, since there are still few climbers now and bears may appear near the trail, please include a bell or whistle and consider carrying bear spray when making your plans.
