Exploring two ice villages in a single day offers a full and exciting itinerary, and this winter wonderland adventure is highly recommended. These ice villages are only available during the winter season.
Enjoy a drink at the Ice Bar in Lake Shikaribetsu. Experience the chill of the wind on your face while riding snowmobiles. For those seeking more excitement, the outdoor Ice Hot Spring in Lake Shikaribetsu is a must-try! Rest assured, no one has ever frozen in the Ice Hot Spring! (Remember to bring your own towel)
Next, visit the Tomamu Ice Village to admire the stunning and magical scenery. Both indoor and outdoor activities will leave you satisfied. Delight in refreshments at the Ice Books & Café, such as ice desserts and lattes served in ice glasses. It’s a unique experience to enjoy an “Ice Meal” indoors while it’s about -20°C outside. Due to the extremely cold weather, please ensure you have enough warm clothing!

“Kotan” translates to “Village,” and these two enchanting villages emerge only during Hokkaido’s winter.
One of these villages appears on Lake Shikaribetsu, the highest lake in Hokkaido. This Kotan features numerous ice structures, including an ice bar, ice concert hall, ice chapel, and much more to explore. Although it may sound unusual, the most renowned attraction is the Ice Hot Spring on the frozen lake! (Please remember to bring your own towel for the hot spring.)
Another favorite is the ice village nestled in the forest of Tomamu. Here, visitors can enjoy an ice café, ice bar, ice slide, and an ice skating rink! Additionally, indoor activities like ice glass workshops are available.
