I would like to deliver the charm of Hokkaido Nishiokoppe Village [tourist information]! Thank you in advance. Hokkaido Nishiokoppe Village is located inland in the Sea of Okhotsk in the eastern Hokkaido region, has a population of 1,002 (as of the end of July 2023 (Reiwa 5)), and forests account for about 90% of the village's area. The contrast with forests and snowy landscapes is beautiful, and the walls of major buildings such as public facilities are unified in orange. The temperature difference in our village is large, and it can be -20 degrees Celsius in winter and over 30 degrees Celsius in summer. Although it is a harsh natural environment, it is full of hidden areas and sightseeing spots such as rich nature and waterfalls! Then, Hokkaido Nishiokoppe Village Here are some of the attractive sightseeing spots. The "Ice Tunnel" at the foot of the Mt. Uenshiri is a fantastic popular tourist destination where the ice world spreads! The tunnel created by the water flowing down due to the melting snow in spring is located in a mountain valley, so the ice does not melt even in summer, showing a mysterious world. It is usually closed due to the risk of collapse, but in July this year, it was opened for one day only for the first time in four years. "Roadside Station Nishiokoppe Kamu" is a spot where a flower park and Roadside Station are fused! In the Roadside Station building, there is a wooden contraption organ "Otogibayashi" that plays sound with the power of the wind, which is rare in Japan, and the shop also sells dairy products such as soft-serve ice cream using grass-fed milk from Nishikobu, as well as processed Yezo sika deer products (processed skin products, pet food, etc.). In the attached flower park, you can enjoy a garden based on the concept of a "natural garden" that reproduces natural plants and flowers that grow according to the climate and climate of the Nishiokoppe Village. Located about 10 minutes by car from the Roadside Station Nishiokoppe Kamu, the Forest Museum Komu is an art museum based on the concepts of "seeing," "touching," "playing," and "creating."

The sightseeing spot "Gyoja no Taki" where you can feel the power of nature is a waterfall with a drop of 20 meters.
