Or take in the view from the top of the ski lifts, visit an onsen (hotspring) or sample fresh produce from one of the many farms in the area. If driving Lake Toya and the Shakotan Peninsula are ideal for day trips being only an hour or so away. For more ideas drop in at Izumikyo Management Centre to discuss.
