Hi, you can take the buses and also the trains to the major cities.
But depending on the snowfall, those will probably be delayed.

Thank you for your information and advise, is great help to me.
I have one more question, I have one day free on my way from Abashiri to Shikaribetsuko,but I want to visit Lake Mashu and Lake Kusharo,which place should I have to stay is convenience to access to these two lake and easy to go Shintoku for the next morning.
Waiting for your advise again.

You'd better go
Mashu¨Kussyaro¨Akan¨Kushiro¨Obihiro¨Shikaribetsu¨Shintoku
You can stay anywhere if only you are on time of bus or train.
or if you changed your plan,
Mashu¨Kussyaro¨Akan¨Ashoro¨Obihiro¨Shikaribetsu¨Shintoku
