How this course works

The route leaves Kushiro Airport at 9:00, visits each sight for a typical stay time and reaches the hotel by 18:00. Drive times are estimates; roads in Eastern Hokkaido are long and quiet, so keep a comfortable margin.

Hotels are examples near the last stop of each day, from Rakuten Travel listings. If your hotel is booked, enter its name when creating a plan; you can also change the start/end point (airports or your current location) and departure time.
