Hokkaido Trip 2016/6/17 00:23
Hi all,
I will travel alone to Hokkaido in Mid August and will use public transport. I'm interested in hiking beginner level and flowers.
Total days at Hokkaido is 8 days and 7 nights:
1st day - Arrive Chitose airport, go Furano - overnight at Furano
2nd day - Spend a day at Furano/Biei - overnight at Furano
3rd day -Travel to Lake Toya for fireworks - overnight at Lake Toya
4th day - hiking at Toya
5th day - Travel to Sapporo (Should go directly to Otaru and overnight there?)
6th day - Sapporo
7th day - Sapporo
Flight back from Chitose Airport

Please help with the question in the bracket in this itinerary. I also need advise should I buy the JR pass and which type is suitable.

Thank you very much.

You can either stay in Otaru for a night or return to Sapporo very late. I stayed in Otaru at one of the retro hotels and really enjoyed it.

The 5 day Hokkaido Pass would probably be best for you but the savings will be minimal.

Thanks for your reply!
I couldn't find any info regarding the lake toya fireworks.
Any idea where is the summer firework and the timing?

Thank you!

Just above the lake. A boat goes round the lake and shoots them up.
After dusk. You can ask your hotel for the timings.
