Located at an elevation of 800m, Shikaribetsu Lake is the highest natural lake in Hokkaido. It is about 90 minutes by car from Obihiro Airport. On the western shore of Shikaribetsu Lake sits Hotel Fusui, a hot spring inn offering natural hot spring water directly from the source. The hot spring is rich in iron, which turns the water a cloudy reddish-brown when exposed to air—one of its unique features.

From the large bath and open-air hot spring facing the lake, you can enjoy a stunning view of Mt. Tenbo, the symbol of Shikaribetsu Lake. When the lake is calm, Mt. Tenbo is beautifully reflected on the water’s mirror-like surface, creating an image called the ‘Lip Mountain’ due to its shape. Whether you visit in spring with melting snow and budding plants, in summer’s fresh greenery, during autumn foliage, or in the pure white of snowy winter, you’ll always be welcomed by breathtaking, majestic scenery.
