Is Kamiyubetsu park worth the visit ?

Hi everyone !



I%26#39;ll be visiting Hokkaido in 1st to 9th May, wonder if the tulips will be blooming then and if the Kamiyubetsu park worth the visit...



cos%26#39; none of the tour agency in Singapore cover that trail... maybe cos%26#39; it is too far from central Hokkaido..but the tulips at the website looks so beautiful

Is Kamiyubetsu park worth the visit ?


Went there last year mid May or so - joined Japanese group day tour from Asahikawa. Difficult to go without own transport.



It depends on weather - but it was very pretty in midMay last year. But I think if you go to Yurighara Park around Sapporo suburbs, can also see lots of nice tulips if they are in season - check with Sapporo Tourist information, they are very helpful. Of course the variety is less. Much more accessible fr Sapporo via train than Kamiyubetsu

Hi GhellC,



Thanks for your quick response ! Is it very difficult to travel to KAmiyubetsu via rail to Engaru station ?



You mentioned you join the local tour group. Did you book there on online before you go ?



can you still recall the name of the tour agency and roughly how much it cost for the full day tour (I assume since it is so far away...)



Thanks again !




No idea abt travelling there on train - best to check with Sapporo tourist information.





I was asking around Sapporo tourist information for tours from Asahikawa as staying 1 nite there. Saw a Japanese brochure for bus tours - asked the tourist information who helped me call as I dont speak Japanese. Made reservation 1 day before - the bus company is in a building near to Washington Hotel opp Asahikawa Tourist information in the basement 1. Cant remember the name of bus company




Taisetsu Nature Tours in Asahikawa can organize day tour to Kamiyubetsu Tulip Park and Takinoue Pink Moss Park. I also read about an agency called Donan that runs a similar 1-day tour, but the tour is in Japanese.
