2025 Engaru Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

A library that specializes in literary works. It has a wide selection of Japanese literature, world literature, and even manga, although I'm not sure if it counts as literature. It's attached to JR Ikutahara Station, so it's a great place to wait for the train. #Theme Park #Free Spot

Ikutahara in Engaru Town is a town where the remains of a coal mine have been certified as a Japanese Geopark. This small shrine is located just before the mine. At first glance, the shrine doesn't look particularly special, but the straight approach to the shrine is quite nice. If you come at the right time of year, it's a photogenic spot with the sun setting directly in front of you. However, when I went, the weather was bad, so it was a shame. #Shrine #Historic site #Guide to taking photos at tourist spots

Japan's largest cosmos field is located in Engaru Town, Hokkaido. It's a spectacular sight! ! ! ! And since it's run by the town, admission is free. It's a shame that it's free to visit Japan's largest cosmos field, so why not eat a meal in town or buy some souvenirs and spend some money? ^ ^ The cosmos are at their best around mid-September. The moss pinks in spring are also famous. Engaru Town, Monbetsu District, Hokkaido Taiyo no Oka Engaru Park #Flower Spot #Japan Genki Project 2021 #Summer Trip#Stunning View

A secluded inn located deep in the mountains in the Maruseppu area of ​​Engaru Town. There are no restaurants, no lights, and basically no TVs in the area (though for some reason you can watch WOWOW). It's a truly secluded area where there's no cell phone reception, but above all, the quality of the hot springs is excellent. Maybe the best in Hokkaido. The facilities are generally old and not very comfortable, but if you're just looking for the hot springs, this is a highly recommended inn. (Maybe it's also good for a digital detox) #hotspringstrip #Hokkaido #hotsprings #coupletrip#hotspringstrip#accommodationexperience#tourismsupport#tripwithkids

From May to June every year, in addition to the blooming moss phlox that dyes Hokkaido pink, the pink tulips also become another romantic scenery of Hokkaido in spring. When you walk into the colorful Hokkaido tulip fields, it's like walking into a fairy tale world. Yubetsu Town Tulip Garden and Takino Suzuran Hillside National Park are the two most classic tulip viewing spots in Hokkaido. They have a stable flowering period, spectacular scale, and complete facilities. Buying a plane ticket to come to Hokkaido for a tulip tour will definitely not disappoint you! Tulips, which originated in Europe, have only been transplanted to Hokkaido on a large scale in recent years. The flowers bloom in a cup shape, and the colors are colorful and diverse, ranging from classic red, yellow, and white pure colors to rare purple, black, and mixed color gradients. Because the cool climate in Hokkaido in spring is very similar to that of the Netherlands, where it originated, coupled with the vast land and fertile soil, the spectacular sea of ​​flowers with more than one million plants blooming in May and June every year is beautiful. Features: Hokkaido's largest tulip garden, more than 2 million tulips blooming together is very spectacular Self-driving navigation settings: Kamiyuubetsu Tulip Park Public transportation: Take the Kitami bus from JR Engaru Station (the bus runs are less frequent, it is recommended to drive, charter or take a day trip, which will be much easier) Tulip flowering period: Early May to early June Opening hours: 08:00-17:30 Tickets: Adults 600 yen, elementary school students and below free Recommended stay time: About 60~90 minutes

There is a flower park in Yubetsu near Monbetsu in the eastern part of Hokkaido, and from early to late May, you can see a wide area full of tulips. https://maps.app.goo.gl/Sth6dhuuTXQXBidW8?g_st=ac Parking is free, and if the flowers are in full bloom and gorgeous, admission is charged, otherwise it is free (May 28th, when about 1/3 of the flowers have withered, admission is free). If you come to the eastern part of Hokkaido in mid-May, there are two Shibazakura flower lawn parks, so after the cherry blossoms, go to Toto in Hokkaido~

#0yentravel Engaru Station is a JR Sekihoku Line station located in Engaru Town, Monbetsu District, Hokkaido. It opened in 1915 and was once a key transportation hub as the junction with the Nayoro Line. It is now known as a station with a switchback structure, which is rare in Japan. The station building is a two-story wooden building built in 1932, and its historic appearance is impressive. The platform has two sides and three tracks, and trains such as the express trains "Okhotsk" and "Daisetsu" stop there. Shopping streets and public facilities are gathered around the station, making it the center of the town. When I visited, I was drawn to the illustration of the town's flower, "cosmos," painted on the stairs of the station, which caught my eye and gave me a sense of the warmth of the area. Engaru Station is one of the memorable stations not only for train fans but also for travelers.

It was September, and I went to Engaru Park in Hokkaido's Engaru Hills in Hokkaido during the cosmos season 😊 I've wanted to go every year, but the timing never worked out, so I finally got to go and see them! The hill was covered in pink cosmos, as well as rare colors like orange and brown 🌸 It was a nice, hot day, but I'm really glad I came to see the cosmos in full bloom! It seems that a cosmos festival is held every year when the flowers are in full bloom! #Engaru #Cosmos #HokkaidoTrip

Engaru Park in Engaru Town, Hokkaido, is famous for its largest cosmos garden in Japan and its moss phlox, one of the three major moss phlox in the Okhotsk Sea. The grounds are very spacious, and you can enjoy a picnic with your family on a sunny day. I visited in late September when it was still hot in Honshu, but the autumn leaves were starting to fall, and I was surprised at how quickly the seasons change in Hokkaido. 📌Visited on September 23rd #AutumnTrip #Hokkaido #HokkaidoTourism #AutumnFoliageSpots #AutumnFoliageViewing #LocalTrip
