Wakoto Peninsula is a caldera experience spot where forest and lake weave together. This peninsula juts out from the south side of Lake Kussharo, and its surroundings are geothermally warm, creating the curious effect of staying unfrozen even in winter.
In this piece, we introduce Wakoto Peninsula, a rare environment in Japan.

和琴半島｜弟子屈を楽しむ｜弟子屈なび｜北海道弟子屈町

屈斜路湖の南側につきでた、和琴半島。かつては火山の溶岩ドームでしたが、大昔に岸とつながって半島になりました。ここは地熱が高く、冬でも凍結しない場所のある不思議スポット。半島全体は原生的な森に覆われ、北海道らしい豊かさに出合える場所でもあります。半島の入り口には「和琴フィールドハウス」があり、周辺の自然や地形などについて分かりやすく展示しています。まずはこちらに立ち寄って情報収集するのもよし。半島にはいたるところから温泉が湧き出ているほか、釣りやカヌー、水遊びなど楽しみ方はさまざま。駐車場脇の土産店では名物の「いも団子」も購入できます。ゆっくりと時間をとって遊びたいスポットです。
