Highlights

  • Partake in one of the world’s most famous winter festivals. Enjoy the sights (& brisk) of larger-than-life snow and ice sculptures lining Odori Park.
  • Experience Japan’s far north drift ice on the back of the Abshire icebreaker cruise.
  • Cheer on the Asahiyama Zoo Penguins on their annual wintertime exercise – a true penguin parade to behold!
  • Dawn a wetsuit for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to walk on or even jump into drift ice to feel the chill!
  • Browse through the kaleidoscope of Kushiro’s fresh local seafood and build your own Katte Don (“as you wish” seafood rice bowl unique to Kushiro).
