Tokachi Millennium Forest

A vast forest aiming to be a legacy for humanity a thousand years from now

A forest at the foot of the Hidaka Mountain Range, created as a natural heritage for humanity a thousand years from now, where you can enjoy Segway tours and cheese-making experiences.

Set against the majestic Hidaka Mountain Range, Tokachi Millennium Forest spreads with endless grasslands and deep forests, created with the goal of protecting and nurturing the natural environment over a thousand-year time span. On Segway guided tours, you can ride electric vehicles through grasslands and forests, enjoying the exhilarating sensation of cutting through the wind and the grand panorama of the Tokachi Plain spread before you. As the forest's fragrance mixes with the fresh scent of the grasslands and the chirping of wild birds pleasantly echoes in your ears, you can feel the richness of nature that continues into the future with your whole body. The sight of the Hidaka Mountain Range stretching into the distance is spectacular, changing its expression with each season from snow-covered peaks to fresh greenery and autumn foliage.

In the Tokachi Natural Cheese-making Experience, you can learn about Hokkaido's dairy farming while experiencing the process of making cheese with your own hands. When you bake pizza with freshly made cheese, the savory aroma of fresh-baked bread rises, and the combination of melted cheese and dough creates an exceptional taste. Eating your own handmade pizza in the forest becomes a deeply memorable part of your journey. It's a special place where you can interact with Hokkaido's great nature through diverse experiences, based on the philosophy of nature conservation looking a thousand years ahead.
