What Furano is like

Furano Station is separated from its flower fields and rural attractions. Rail travelers should decide in advance between seasonal buses, a sightseeing taxi, or a rental car.

Lavender has a limited peak, but food, skiing, and crafts provide reasons to visit in other seasons. Build the day around facilities actually operating in your month.

Stations and access

Use Furano Station as the arrival base and connect to rural sights by seasonal bus, taxi, or car. Farm Tomita is toward Nakafurano and is not in the town's walking zone.

  • Summer flower landscapes
  • Hokkaido food and wine
  • Rural travel by car or seasonal bus
