Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get to Furano from Sapporo?

Drive takes about 2.5 hours via Route 38. By train, take JR to Furano Station (about 2 hours with transfer at Takikawa). Direct buses run from New Chitose Airport in winter.

Is Furano a good alternative to Niseko?

Yes. Furano gets excellent powder with fewer crowds than Niseko. The terrain suits intermediates well. Prices are generally lower, and the town has a more local Japanese feel. Night skiing is available too.

What else can I do in Furano?

Famous lavender fields bloom June-August. Year-round: cheese factory visits, wine tasting at Furano Winery, hot springs, and Blue Pond is a short drive away. The drama 'Kita no Kuni kara' was filmed here.
