Access from popular tourist spots in Hokkaido is also outstanding.
JR Shintoku Station is served by 22 limited express trains a day, about 2 hours from Sapporo, about 1 hour and 45 minutes from New Chitose Airport, about 30 minutes from Tomamu, about 30 minutes from Obihiro, and about 1 hour and 50 minutes from Kushiro.
A train trip to Shintoku Town while looking at the beautiful natural scenery of Hokkaido is recommended.
Shintoku is also a dairy farming town where about six times the number of cows is raised.
Shintoku Town's proud gourmet food is "soba noodles" that are said to be the highest quality in Japan made from locally produced buckwheat flour, and up to 25,000 people come to the "Shintoku New Soba Festival" held every September in search of new soba noodles.
Sightseeing, gastronomy, activities... We will send out information about Shintoku Town, Kamikawa-gun, Hokkaido, which is full of charm, so thank you!

Since the start of this month, Shintoku has unexpectedly enjoyed many springlike days, yet yesterday the town saw 45 cm of snow fall continuously. In an instant the town turned into a silver-white landscape. Also, Shintoku Ski Resort, which had been closed for lack of snow since February 14, will reopen from tomorrow. Look forward to it!

The view from the fifth kilometer marker on National Route 38, where the snow has thinned, looking toward the great curve of the former Karikachi Line. This sweeping bend is an indispensable historical legacy for understanding Hokkaido’s railway construction history.

I spotted someone cycling across the Shikaribetsu Pass!
They’re a university student from Kanagawa Prefecture planning to ride from Kushiro to Asahikawa over ten days.
They’ll stay in hotels along the way but also plan to camp at times.
I heard they’re riding with studded tires—ride safely and enjoy winter in Hokkaido until the end of the journey.

I visited Hokkaido Avant in Kutcharo, Shintoku Town. Sauna enthusiasts who had come from Tokyo, Kyoto, and Oita, including members of the Sauna Research Group from Tokyo, took turns cooling down after their saunas by plunging into a hole cut in the frozen lake. Shouts that sounded like cheers or excitement echoed across the quiet lake.
After cooling down, they enjoyed a peaceful time on an ice carousel.
