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!

Koharuhi until yesterday seems to be a lie. Snow in the town, snow in the passes. But I definitely found the arrival of Spring on Poppo's road. Mizubasho, which had only a few leaves five days ago, is spreading all over the swamp. The weather is expected to improve from tomorrow. If you are passing by, please look for Mizubasho on Poppo's road.

The last few days have been warm. What's going on with Lysichiton camtschatcensis? I was curious and went to the swamp along Poppo's road on the Old Karikachi Line track. It seems that it was still a little early, but there were pretty flowers blooming nearby. Soon, Lysichiton camtschatcensis will also be there.

For the rehearsal of the birch sap water collection experience that will start the day after tomorrow, we will do a final check of the flow at the site. I was worried because it snowed the day before yesterday, but thanks to the warmth today, I was relieved by the sap that oozes out when I make a hole in the birch. It seems that it was still a little early for full-scale collection, and the sap that came out was about 50 ml in one hour. From now until the end of the week, the daytime temperature is forecast to exceed 10 degrees Celsius, so I think the amount of collection will stabilize.
The birch sap water collection experience will be held from the 5th Friday to the 14th Sunday of this month, and reservations can be made even the day before. If you are interested, please join us. In addition, those who are only interested in visiting are welcome.
* If there are no participants, there will be no event, so please contact the tourism association in advance.
For details, please contact the Shintoku Tourism Association [0156-64-0522].

The Nemuro Main Line between Furano and Shintoku, which has contributed greatly to the development of the town and economic development, will last operate today. Watched over by many railway fans, the "Thank You Nemuro Main Line Furano to Shintoku Farewell Ceremony" was also held in front of Shintoku Station. The occasional falling snow during the event seemed to produce "goodbye" and "departure".
