What is Hokkaido Gaden Road?
This is a 250km-long road that connects Daisetsu, Furano and Tokachi, and is home to eight of Hokkaido's most beautiful gardens. Taking advantage of Hokkaido's unique climate and scenery, there are a variety of unique gardens, including lush natural gardens, lovely rose gardens and authentic English-style gardens. It is worthy of being called Japan's Cotswolds (British Garden area) or the Romantic Road (one of Germany's tourist roads), and will build a new garden culture in Japan. It is also a tourist route where you can enjoy activities along with natural scenery and mountain ranges, and savour rich cuisine.
~A forest garden where you can relax and unwind in the majestic nature of Daisetsu~
Daisetsu Forest Garden
Hokkaido garden experts Ueno Sayuki and Kasa Kozaburo, along with Takano Landscape Planning, have teamed up to create this garden in the forest that spreads across the hills overlooking the Daisetsu mountain range. The garden is a forest flower garden where over 500 varieties flowers bloom while making the most of the natural trees. At the back of the garden is the Forest Guest House, where trees and pretty flowers compete with each other.
