The lavender blooms from mid-July to early August, with the peak viewing period typically occurring during the Nakafurano Lavender Festival in mid-July. The garden operates during summer from late June through mid-August, giving visitors a window of several weeks to experience the flowers at their best.
Entry to the lavender fields is completely free. If you want to take the chair lift to the summit, tickets cost ¥400 for adults (high school students and older) and ¥200 for children (primary and middle school students). Preschoolers ride the lift free of charge. Group discounts are available for parties of 11 or more people.
The chair lift is a single-seat design, which means passengers cannot hold children, pets, or backpacks during the ride for safety reasons. While preschoolers aged 3-6 have ridden the lift in the past, children must be able to ride independently. Parents should assess whether their child can manage the five-and-a-half-minute solo ride before purchasing tickets.
From the summit, visitors enjoy panoramic views of the Tokachidake mountain range and the agricultural landscape of Furano Basin spreading below. The chair lift ride itself provides the sensation of floating above a colorful flower carpet. Besides lavender, the garden features four lavender varieties, sunflowers, salvia, and a rare white lavender variety near the summit.
