Anytime of year the drive between Sapporo’s Chitose Airport and Niseko is a spectacular drive, possible more so in summer as you can stop off for a picnic and swim in Shikotsu Ko(lake). However in winter you could stop for a spa at Shikotsu Ko Onsen(hot spring) or just take in the views of the snow covered landscape around Shikotsu Ko.

Check out some information on Shikotsu Ko and links to other pages at Sapporo City’s web site.
