4 days in Asahikawa Itinerary

Perched on the confluence of four rivers and surrounded by green hills, Asahikawa combines a modern city experience with the pristine nature nearby.

Get outdoors at Bear Mountain Sahoro and Asahiyama Zoo. Get out of town with these interesting Asahikawa side-trips: Higashikawa-cho (Mt. Asahidake & Asahidake Ropeway), Sounkyo Gorge (in Kamikawa-cho) and Biei-cho (Shikisai no Oka & Shinseikan). And it doesn't end there: admire the masterpieces at Snow Museum, find something for the whole family at Asahikawa Ramen Village, and don't miss a visit to Road Station Asahikawa.
