Autumn in Hokkaido is not just about red leaves, but a grand journey of colors stretching from the city into the mountains. From the golden ginkgo trees lining the streets of Sapporo, to the maple-covered valleys of Hoheikyo Dam, and the dreamlike blue-green hues of the Shirogane Blue Pond in Biei set against autumn scenery, each stop feels like stepping into a different world.

Along the way, the route connects the pastoral landscapes of Furano, the crystal-clear waters of Lake Shikotsu, and the volcanic geothermal wonders of Noboribetsu. The journey concludes with a romantic finale by the softly lit Otaru Canal, bringing together the most captivating autumn scenery of Hokkaido in one unforgettable trip.
