The best time to visit depends on which flowers you want to see. Lupines bloom in June, lavender reaches peak bloom in mid-July, and sunflowers appear in August. The farm is open from June to September, with the most vibrant displays typically occurring between mid-June and early September. Mid-July is particularly popular for lavender enthusiasts.
Entry to the flower garden is completely free. However, there is a small fee if you wish to take the tractor bus tour through the fields, which lasts approximately 10-15 minutes. Activities like lavender cutting and flower pressing may also have separate charges.
From Sapporo, you can take the JR train to Kamifurano Station, then either take a taxi (5-minute ride) or walk (50-60 minutes) to the farm. By car, the farm is located about 90 minutes from Mikasa IC on the Hokkaido Expressway via Route 452. The farm offers 100 free parking spaces for visitors driving their own vehicles.
Visitors can walk through the extensive flower fields on foot, take a tractor bus tour that changes routes seasonally, and participate in hands-on activities including lavender cutting, flower pressing, and making lavender-scented sleep pillows. The farm also has an on-site restaurant serving Asahikawa ramen and local dishes, plus a gift shop selling souvenirs and fresh seasonal produce.
While you cannot see Mount Fuji from Hokkaido, Flower Land offers spectacular views of the Tokachi and Daisetsuzan mountain ranges. From the observation deck, visitors can see Hokkaido's highest peak, Mount Asahi, and Mount Tokachi, all framed beautifully against the colorful flower fields in the foreground.
Traveler reviews
Went today on 5 June. Still not much flowers yet. Just a small area that has flowers.
It was very windy.
I visited Flower Land Kamifurano by electric bicycle, and it was truly one of the most peaceful and scenic places I’ve been to. The atmosphere is incredibly calm, surrounded by colorful flowers as far as the eye can see. The beautiful landscapes are so relaxing to look at, and it’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nature. The staff were also very kind and welcoming, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!
Came in late september, still has some nice flowers but I can see about >50% of the fields are now past their prime. Still quite nice to walk around, small one story observatory. Small nice shop to purchase anything if needed.
Nice farm that you can visit to look at the flowers. Their premise is quite big so, it's a nice walk in the summer. The flowers will only bloom in jul so, we were too early when we visited in may. There is a restaurant on site so, you can buy some food if you're hungry.
Free entrance. Less commercial. At high level, nice view. Just awaiting flowers to bloom.
