Located near the hot spring district, Shōwa-Shinzan Bear Ranch offers a unique chance to encounter Hokkaido’s famous brown bears up close. Known as the birthplace of the iconic slogan “Beware of Bears,” this spot lets travelers safely observe and even feed these adorable yet powerful creatures. Visitors can purchase bear snacks and watch the bears wave or show off playful behaviors in response. There are also designated areas where you can view the bears at eye level, making for great photo opportunities. Admission to the bear farm is not included in the tour fee (around 7$ per person). If you prefer a more relaxed option, you can skip the ranch and enjoy a meal at the nearby restaurant, also at your own expense. Whether you choose to interact with the bears or savor local cuisine, this stop offers a fun and memorable experience that showcases a unique side of Hokkaido’s wildlife and culture.

Travelers who book this experience will explore the dramatic landscape of Noboribetsu's Hell Valley, or Jigokudani, a powerful reminder of Hokkaido’s volcanic origins. The name “Noboribetsu” comes from the Ainu word “ヌプルペッ,” meaning “white turbid river,” which reflects the area's geothermal nature. At Jigokudani, visitors will walk along well-maintained trails that lead through a surreal terrain of steaming vents, bubbling mud pools, and sulfurous streams. The gray-yellow rocks constantly release volcanic gases, filling the air with a strong sulfur scent. Vegetation is scarce here, giving the valley a barren, otherworldly appearance—hence the name “Hell Valley.” This natural wonder offers a rare, close-up look at volcanic activity and geothermal forces in action, making it a truly unforgettable experience for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
