Traveler reviews

•Went here last May 31, flowers arent in full bloom yet but I still had a wonderful morning walking around the garden. •The weather was good; cool but not very chilly. It was also windy. •The garden staff were very kind. A man who was cutting some yellow flowers even handed me few pieces, so sweet! •Highly recommended despite being touristy. Just arrive early, and best during late June to July-August.

We got here on the 1st of may where the planting just started. Still stuff to see and do, although we didn't come at peak bloom the crowd was not too packed and we got to enjoy the facilities without lines. I got as much of the menu as I could which were ready (unfortunately the butter potato wasn't). But the potato croquettes were so tasty and like every location in Hokaido you can't go wrong with their corn. The lavendar ice cream looks beautiful but the melon ice cream taste the best - hard choice between photographable food or tasty food. We also went to feed the alpaca. Super clean facilities + super cute when they nibble food off your hands

This flower garden in Biei is very impressive in terms of its expansive size and meticulous upkeep. Spread over rolling hill slopes, the flowering plants create bands of vibrant colours that are a sight to behold. My wife and I visited the garden in July and the flower blooms were fresh and beautiful. Although summer was sunny and hot, our visit was blessed with a very pleasant daytime temperature of 22℃. It was very enjoyable to stroll along the pathways, enjoy the flowers and take photos. As the garden is big, visitors can pay for transport options like tractor-pulled wagons or self-drive golf buggies. At the entrance, there is a big retail shop. Carparking is chargeable at ¥500 per entry and we had to circle around to find a vacant lot. Entry into the garden is also chargeable at ¥500 per adult. Notwithstanding the charges, the garden attracts many visitors. Although the car park was full and the entrance was crowded when we visited, the garden had a relaxing atmosphere as visitors were well spread out across its extensive grounds. In our two trips to Hokkaido, we visited Shikisai-no-Oka and both visits were memorable. It is a “must visit” flower garden.

Snowmobile is a must-try activity in Biei during winter time, very recommended. Quite a fun experience, not so difficult to control, even you haven’t got any driving license. We took the forest course in the morning, the course was only two of us, however, there’s many visitors drop off from tourist buses around noon time. (*snowmobile is walk-in only, no advance booking even if you call, so make sure you come as early as possible to avoid the crowd)

We visited on 1 Oct when the park started to waive the entrance fee. Yet there was still a field of flowers in full bloom to enjoy. What a pleasant surprise!
