Oirase keiryū Gorge is a picturesque wonderland with clear streams, moss-covered rocks, and surrounding deciduous broadleaf forests. The vibrant greenery, forests adorned in autumn colors, and a world of ice and snow make for breathtaking scenery. It has been officially recognized as a Special Place of Scenic Beauty and Natural Monument.
Lake Towada, a mysterious and beautiful lake that transforms with the seasons. In spring, it's adorned with fresh greenery; in fall, the surrounding forests burst with vibrant colors; and in winter, it's blanketed in pure white snow. The emerald-green, crystal-clear waters reflect these distinct seasonal landscapes, creating an enchanting and mystical beauty.
Take a cable car in the Hakkōda Mountains to enjoy the stunning scenery. In fall, the maple leaves on the mountain dye the entire range golden, red, and orange, like a magnificent painting by nature. The winter tree ice spectacle is an even more unique natural wonder, with hundreds of trees covered in snow and ice, transforming into strangely shaped monsters.
