Enjoy Autumn in Hokkaido

Enjoy Autumn in Hokkaido

Relax and Unwind in Hokkaido’s Stunning Autumn Foliage

Hokkaido is one of the first places in Japan where the leaves begin to change color, with the season typically starting in mid-September. As the trees gradually turn vibrant shades of red and yellow, the landscape transforms into a breathtaking scene—like a painting brought to life. It’s a wonderful way to feel the quiet, deepening rhythm of autumn.

One of the best spots to enjoy the autumn leaves is Ryūsen Gorge, located about a 20-minute drive from the villa. This scenic valley, nestled upstream along the Yūbari River, is known for its clear waters and strikingly colorful foliage. As you take in the view, surrounded by crisp, clean air and stunning nature, you’ll experience an unforgettable moment of autumn’s magic.

You can also enjoy the autumn colors at Kuriyama Park, just a 5-minute drive from the villa. The park features well-maintained walking paths, making it perfect for a light stroll while taking in the colorful foliage.
As you breathe in the crisp air and wander through the peaceful surroundings, you’ll feel your stress melt away—a refreshing escape for both body and mind.

In the area where the villa is located, the largest local autumn festival is held every September. This lively three-day event features over 200 food stalls and draws large crowds who come to enjoy the festive atmosphere.

You’ll find all the classic Japanese festival flavors—crispy fried karaage, grilled Hokkaido seafood, and sweet treats, all freshly prepared and ready to enjoy. One of the best parts? Sampling food as you stroll through the lively streets, soaking in the sights, sounds, and flavors of the season.

In the evening, the energy ramps up with colorful Yosakoi dance performances. The dancers’ dynamic moves and vibrant spirit are captivating—you might just find yourself reaching for your camera to capture the moment.
