Onneto is a lake with a circumference of 2.5 km west of Akan-Mashu National Park and was formed by the eruption of Mt. Meakan about 2,000 years ago.

* It takes about 50 minutes by car from the Ashoro city center.
* During the winter period December ~ April, the road leading to the lake is closed and vehicles are not allowed to pass. For details, please see the website of the Ashoro Tourism Association.

The "Ashiyoro Furusato Bon Odori Ryogoku Fireworks Festival" held every August is the largest event in the town where as many as 8,000 fireworks dye the night sky of Ashiyoro in vivid colors * In 2022, only fireworks were launched.

When sightseeing in Hokkaido, please come to Ashoro.
Japan's largest town with untouched nature awaits you with the best hospitality.
