Itinerary Details
Green Breathing on the Edge of the City: The Tranquil Charm of Mimikawa
You might find it hard to believe that beside the constant roar of takeoffs and landings at New Chitose Airport lies a tranquil river with flowing water. The banks of the Mimi River are lined with native Hokkaido broadleaf forests, and swans or wild ducks can often be seen swimming leisurely on its surface. Sitting in a canoe, with your line of sight level with the horizon, as the paddles cut through the calm water, the tranquility of being one with nature is a luxury that no bustling tourist destination can replace.
The last touch of green before boarding: A perfectly connected light trip
This itinerary is perfect for your first stop in Hokkaido or as your last highlight before returning home. With professional transfer services, you can immerse yourself in the phytoncides and sweet air of the forest two hours before your flight. A professional guide will be there to ensure you stay dry and gracefully complete this forest water adventure, bringing your Hokkaido trip to a perfect close.
