Accommodations are primarily concentrated in the town center and near the lake shores. With a small population of approximately 6,300, hotel choices are limited. It is advisable to book facilities close to major attractions in advance to minimize travel time.
There is no direct airport access. Travelers must first reach Kushiro or Obihiro, then transfer to buses or rent a car. Given the town's large area of 774 square kilometers, public transportation is inconvenient, making self-driving the best way to explore the surrounding lakes.
All seasons offer unique experiences, with winter ice waterfalls and summer hiking trails being highlights. Autumn foliage is also stunning. Due to its remote location and rapidly changing weather, travelers should prepare appropriate gear for their specific season of visit.
