Visit Hokkaido in the height of summer to see the flowers: The complete guide to Furano's lavender

① Nakafurano "Color Fragrance Village" ►Check-in experience: - Not many people come to Color Fragrance Village, one reason is that it's quite a distance away, requiring a climb up a steep slope; the other is that this quaint place is more of a niche spot, and large travel groups generally don't come here. - After crossing a field opposite Nakafurano Station, turn onto a small path and slowly climb up, the destination is at the end of the forest! Along the way, there are lovely little flowers and grasses planted by local residents - Once you reach the lavender garden, you're greeted by a sea of purple! Sunflowers! The sunflowers planted here are golden yellow, small and delicate, and particularly endearing! From a corner of the flower field, you can see the distant Tokachi mountain range! ►Recommended visit: 2 hours ►Transportation: Take the JR express train from Sapporo to Furano ② Furano's most beautiful farm: Tomita Farm ► After returning to Nakafurano Station, I rented a bicycle and set off for "Tomita Farm," the farm of the Tomita family who persisted in growing lavender many years ago! ► Tomita Farm - Composed of several flower fields, among which the most famous is the colorful flower field. It's like a luxurious flower carpet visible even from the moon, stretching straight towards the pine forest on the other side of the field! - Unlike the singular scenery of Provence, Furano's lavender, set against various environments (colorful fields, large forests, distant mountains, blue skies and white clouds), presents various postures. It feels like a painting from any angle, with endless scenes to capture - Continue cycling to a lavender field on the hillside, which is the oldest lavender field of Tomita Farm, giving a bit of a Provencal feel! - The bike rental was scheduled for 2 hours, but I ended up wandering around for almost 3 hours before heading back. ► Town-run Lavender Garden - When returning the bike, I took a distant look at the town-run Lavender Garden on the way, which is a flower field in summer and Nakafurano's ski resort in winter! The word "Nakafurano" is spelled out with flowers in the middle, complemented by various colors of flowers below ►Recommended check-in: 3 hours ►Transportation: Rent a bicycle

Beutiful Flowers & More At Farm Tomita

Farm tomita is one of the largest farms in Furano and a day here is never enough. In fact, my family and I loved Fram tomita so much we spent hours and couldn't bear to leave it. Farm tomita has huge flower fields and these flowers were so pretty and they were of different colours and types. Then, there's also a large lavender field, which was a sea of purple and calming lavender flowers. The whole place smells heavenly and relaxing with the lavender scent filling up the whole air. Do buy their famous lavender ice cream, I guarantee you will love it. The special lavender ice cream was milky with a hint of lavender taste and it was a great dessert in the summer heat. Next head over to their melon fields and there is a cafe next to it selling their popular melons and melon ice blended drink. The melon was sweet, juicy and refreshing and it was the same for the drink. They were the best melon and drink I have ever tasted! Overall, love the atmosphere and experience at farm tomita. We will definitely be back here again! #wecreate

Hokkaido's breathtaking field

Farm Tomita is one of Hokkaido’s largest tourist attraction site. It has various beautiful flower fields including the 5-hectare lavender field and other flower gardens. The lavender flowers were almost gone when we visited. The best time to visit Farm Tomita is in late June to early August. During this time the flowers in the garden will be in bloom and a colorful sight can be experienced. Farm Tomita is a 25-minute walk from JR Furano Station. There is a special “Furano-Biei Norokko-go” train that runs between Asahikawa and Furano from June to mid-September. The train stops at the special station Lavender Farm Station, which is a 7-minute walk to Farm Tomita. You can also take a taxi but it's difficult to find one. #farmtomita #lavenderfields #hokkaido #hokkaidotravel #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #japan #japanstories

Checking in at Tomita Farm to join the fun, it is indeed very photogenic, but the lavender ice cream is not commendable

At 10 AM, I took the JR Furano Line slow train from Asahikawa Station to Furano Flower Field Station, which turned out to be a temporary station set up specifically for the lavender season. After a 7-minute walk, I arrived at the must-visit Tomita Farm, one of the most famous lavender sightseeing spots in Hokkaido. It is indeed very photogenic, but the ice cream tastes just average. Lavender Sea of Flowers: The farm is famous for its vast lavender fields. Every summer, the purple sea of flowers decorates the entire farm in a romantic and dreamy way.

Must-visit in Hokkaido during summer: The lavender in Furano is blooming

If you travel to Hokkaido in the summer, you must visit Furano to see the lavender. When you search for lavender pictures worldwide, some that you think are from Provence in southern France are actually taken in Furano. In Furano and Biei, there are many farms and flower fields in the summer. The most famous lavender field is Tomita Farm. It is very large, with vast lavender fields and colorful flower fields. Because it is the largest, it also attracts the most tourists. Remember to avoid the crowds when taking photos. Other facilities: There are some restaurants and lavender-themed shops here, such as ice cream, fans, postcards, sachets, etc. Flowering period: Early June to mid-August Transportation: Transportation here is not very convenient, usually by chartered car or group tour.

Farm Tomita

#weekendgetaways Must visit in Hokkaido. Best time to go is during summer or spring when the flowers are in full bloom. Many people, but just jostle through them. Must eat their lavender ice cream for 400 yen and their melon bread for 350 yen. Very affordable and delicious.For melon products, there is a big building with melon signages right next to the farm. The melon soft serve here was fantastic, but the melon drink tasted too sweet and syrup-y for my liking. There is a counter to return your trash from the specific store where you bought from.overall awesome

Hokkaido Furano - Tomita Farm, Must-Try Lavender Ice Cream

In early June on a weekday afternoon, there was already a very large crowd, and the number may double or more once July arrives. Today, the weather gods have blessed us with superb weather; a lot of flowers have bloomed in early June, and the lavender is already budding, waiting to bloom in July. The lavender soft-serve ice cream is really delicious, everyone should definitely try one. Additionally, there are Baron potato crepes and cantaloupes available for purchase too~

Farm Tomita

#thingstodo If you are lucky with the weather, it’s absolutely gorgeous to visit. The rows of colourful flowers, combined with the open sky and distant mountains make it a necessary visit if you’re in Hokkaido. There are a lot of buses bringing tourists in the summer, so be aware it can get busy, but it didn’t feel cramped when I was outside the buildings. The ice-cream was delicious (I recommend melon and lavender), just make sure you eat it quickly. It melts very fast in the heat. The farm shops are very beautiful and well decorated, and sell all sorts, including dried flowers, perfumes, decorations and food items. The closest all-year train station is a 20-25 minute walk away, and only 5 minutes by train from Furano. The melon farm next door is also a necessary visit!

We going there the wrong timing. Left a little flowers only. But still enjoyed the view.
