What other travelers are saying about Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill
From the top of the hill, you can see a vast and faraway view. There are several buildings and exhibitions to see around, as well as a small lavender field in the back. Despite the name "Hill of Sheep," there are only a few sheep to see. The sheep pens are currently undergoing renovation, I believe. The souvenir shop has good items, and it's a great place to sit, relax, and enjoy some delicious soft-serve ice cream.
Beautiful and peaceful spot with green fields, sheep, and a great view of Sapporo. The Clark statue is perfect for photos. If you live in Hokkaido, the ticket is only ¥500 for adults — totally worth it!
It’s a pleasant place with nice views of the city and a nice grassy area with lavender in summer (and some sheep fields). But it’s expensive (¥1000 per person when we went) and if you are from somewhere with sheep and grassy spaces, you might feel it’s a bit familiar!
tickets 1000 yen per person was expensive and the stuff is rather underwhelming despite it being an iconic spot in Sapporo
