Basha Bar (Horse-drawn carriage BAR)
Discover Tokachi’s Horse Culture
Tokachi’s draft horses were vital during Hokkaido’s pioneering days, helping with plowing, hauling logs, and even coal mining. Their strength and calm nature shaped the region’s horse culture, now recognized as a Hokkaido Heritage asset.
Unlike Hidaka, which focuses on lightweight racing breeds, Tokachi celebrates heavy horses in festivals called “Omatsuri Banba,” inspiring Ban’ei Horse Racing.
At Basha BAR, visitors ride in a carriage pulled by former Ban’ei racehorses while enjoying local craft beer, soft drinks, and Tokachi snacks. The tour offers an up-close experience of the horses’ power and presence, set against the region’s expansive scenery. Reservations are required, making this a unique and memorable addition to any Hokkaido trip.
