🌅 Dreaming of a tranquil escape in Kushiro and Ashoro? Lake Akan is the ultimate lakeside retreat for nature lovers and those who crave authentic Japanese experiences.
Nestled by the water’s edge, the resort is easily reached via the Akan Bus from JR Kushiro Station, making your journey seamless and scenic. 
Hotel Recommendation🏨:
The Forest Akan Tsuruga Resort
Once you arrive, the real treat begins: step onto traditional tatami mats, settle into spacious rooms, and prepare for relaxation. Each room features a private hot spring bath, perfect for soaking in the calm after a day of adventure.🛁
The highlight here: panoramic Lake Akan views right from your room, framed by dramatic mountains—especially magical at sunset! 🌅
📸Have your camera ready by the window for breathtaking shots with the lake, clear skies, and distant peaks.
Evenings shine at the resort’s onsen, where you can unwind in soothing hot springs and gaze out across the shimmering lake. 
🌟Highlights🌟
Don’t miss a stroll to nearby Ainu Kotan Kushiro village for a taste of regional culture and mystical forest walks.
Visit the rich sulfur mud volcano, Bokke, as you take a stroll through the park near the visitor centre! 
The area is alive with wildlife—a chance deer sighting is not uncommon as you explore!🦌
💡Pro tip: Book a room facing🪟 the lake to catch the best sunset colors. And, after your soak, take an early morning walk around Lake Akan for peaceful views and fresh mountain air.
