Miyama Pass 深山峠

Enjoy the colorful flower fields and views of the Tokachidake and Daisetsuzan mountains. This area is a photographer's dream, with rolling hills covered in a stunning variety of colors.

Miyama Pass is accessible by bus from Asahikawa and Furano.

Catch the Asahikawa, Furano, or Biei Lavender Bus to the Miyama Pass bus stop. The pass is a five-minute walk from the bus stop.

By car from Asahikawa, take national highway 237. It is about a 45-minute trip.

Miyama Pass makes a great scenic spot to stop by during Hokkaido's green season. June and July are the best times to visit if you want to see the lavender and poppy flowers.

After checking out all the flowers, try Miyama Ice Cream Kobo's lavender soft-serve ice cream and then head off to the Trick Art Museum. It is not far away, and it tops off a great day.
