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

Enjoy a breathtaking view of the sunset over Lake Hibara from your room window. The open-air hot springs ♨️ boast both lakeside and mountain views, blending seamlessly into the scenery for a truly relaxing soak! The Lake Hibara boat ride area is just three minutes away (hotel guests receive discounted rates for boat rides), a truly worthwhile experience! Delicious peaches can be purchased at the visitor center across from Lake Hibara. Further inside is the entrance to Goshiki-numa Lake, and a ten-minute walk to the Blue Pond. This itinerary is perfect for all ages, and those with a keen sense of foot can explore the entire Goshiki-numa Lake complex. #Goshiki-numaLakes# A hotel not to be missed.

In addition to Lake Inawashiro, Mount Bandai offers many hidden forest trails that are worth discovering. For nature lovers, the Goshikinuma trail across from Lake Hibara is highly recommended. This 3.6-kilometer-long "Goshikinuma Nature Trail" takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to walk and allows visitors to admire a series of ponds, each with its own unique color. The ponds, such as "Aonuma" (Blue Pond), "Akanuma" (Red Pond), "Midoronuma" (Green Pond), "Rurinuma" (Lapis Lazuli Pond), and "Bishamonnuma" (Bishamon Pond), display different hues. The colors of the water change due to variations in light, seasons, weather, and the volcanic minerals present, resulting in shades of blue, green, reddish-brown, milky white, and more. This is why they are collectively called "Goshikinuma" (Five-Colored Ponds). In addition to the seasonal changes in scenery, the views during early morning and dusk also shift with the light, making a walk along the trail not only comfortable but also a visual feast~

Think Japan’s best snow is only in Hokkaido? Think again. Nekoma Ski Resort in Fukushima surprised us with soft, dry powder and empty runs that felt like our own private mountain. No lift queues, no stress—just pure snow bliss. 🎿 Our base? A cozy private lake villa with uninterrupted views of a frozen lake and the surrounding mountains. Waking up here felt like living inside a snow globe. Mornings on the slopes, evenings curled up in the sauna and at the fire with mulled wine. It was everything a winter escape should be. On the way back, we made a dreamy detour to Ouchijuku Village—an Edo-period post town frozen in time. Picture snow-covered thatched roofs, sizzling skewers by the street, and warm soba in an irori hearth. It was like stepping into a folktale. How to get there from Tokyo: *By public transport: Take the Tohoku Shinkansen from Tokyo to Koriyama Station (~1h 15m), then a direct bus or taxi to Nekoma Ski Resort (~1h 30m). To reach Ouchijuku Village, take a taxi or local bus from Aizu-Wakamatsu Station (~30 min). *By car: Drive from Tokyo to Nekoma Ski Resort in about 3¼ hours (approx. 300 km). Parking is available near the resort and at Ouchijuku Village. Tip: Stay at the villa for the views, hit Nekoma’s tree runs, and don’t skip Ouchijuku—it’s a perfect cultural add-on to your ski trip. \#FukushimaSnow #NekomaSkiResort #OuchijukuVillage #LakeVillaViews #SkiJapan #WinterWanderlust #HiddenJapan #TripMoment

I went to Goshikinuma Lake District in Fukushima Prefecture. It's relatively close to Lake Inawashiro and Mount Bandai. As the name suggests, there are many lakes and swamps. It's 4km one way, so I did some trail running while sightseeing! The autumn leaves were at their best along the way. (Although I didn't get many because I was just running.) There are many views that stand out against the green and blue of the water! #autumnleaves #outdoors

I stayed overnight at the adjacent Urabandai Grandeco Tokyu Hotel and enjoyed skiing❣️ Guests can ski directly from the hotel, but everyone else can enter through the front entrance. Unfortunately, the day I visited, it had rained, and it was December, so the snow hadn't piled up yet, and only some of the courses were open, but on days with good conditions, you can experience the powder snow that is also called divine snow❄️I still had a lot of fun, but the timing was bad...😅 The ski center also has a restaurant, shop, and rental and school reception, so it looks like you can enjoy it comfortably even for day trips! 📍Grandeco Snow Resort 〒969-2701 Hibara Arasunazawayama, Kitashiobara-mura, Yama-gun, Fukushima Prefecture #ski resort #trip2022

Recommended for skiers and snowboarders‼️ The Urabandai Grandeco Tokyu Hotel is directly connected to the Grandeco Snow Resort, so you can ski straight from the hotel⛷ On the first floor of the hotel, there are ski lockers and changing rooms for guests only, as well as rental and school reception, so you can complete everything in the hotel without having to go outside in the cold✨ Once you're ready in the warm hotel, you can start skiing right away. You can ski back on the way back, so there's no need to carry your skis! Once you're done skiing, head straight to the hot springs♨️ After experiencing such a comprehensive experience, you'll never be able to go back to a normal ski resort😅 📍〒969-2701 Hibara Arasunazawayama, Kitashiobara-mura, Yama-gun, Fukushima Prefecture #ski #resorthotel #trip2022

Introducing the breakfast and dinner I had at Urabandai Grandeco Tokyu Hotel 😋🍴 ◆Breakfast "Dining Room Claire" It seems to be a buffet usually, but perhaps because there were few guests, you could choose between Japanese or Western food at check-in. Both were very filling and filled you up. You can have refills of the set menu drinks. The restaurant has a large window from which you can see the snowy scenery outside, which was a great way to start the day ☀️ ◆Dinner "Japanese Cuisine Azuma" I had a Japanese kaiseki course! The staff brought each dish to me one by one, so I was able to eat calmly. Everything was delicious with a strong dashi flavor ♫ 📍〒969-2701 Hinohara Arasunazawayama, Kitashiobara-mura, Yama-gun, Fukushima Prefecture #Hotelstay #trip2022

I stayed at the Urabandai Grandeco Tokyu Hotel, located in the nature-rich Urabandai Plateau! It's adjacent to the ski resort, so it's very convenient for skiers and snowboarders in the winter🏂 The lobby is Tokyu, with an unadorned, calm resort hotel atmosphere. On the first floor, there is a craft corner, a small library, a ski facility where you can ski directly from the hotel, and a hot spring. The room was a standard twin, but it was a chic room with a spacious sofa and a blue base. The hot spring seemed a little far away because it was beyond the ski locker area for guests, but I was able to warm up in the open-air bath. The hot spring after a cold ski is the best! ♨️ It was a recommended resort hotel that can be enjoyed all year round, with hiking in the summer and skiing in the winter♫ 📍〒969-2701 Hibara Arasunazawayama, Kitashiobara-mura, Yama-gun, Fukushima Prefecture #ski resort #resort hotel #trip2022

The Goshikinuma Ponds Nature Trail is a short 3.6-kilometer trail that takes about two hours to soak in the beauty of nature. It's a popular destination during the fall foliage season. Our first stop is Yanagi-numa Pond, which is located a short distance from the bus stop. Some people start their walk from here, or it's also the final stop. #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck #TravelJapan #japantrip #japan #japantohoku #japanautumn #fukushima #fukushimatravel #fukushimatrip #fukushimanature

This is the perfect option for those who want to fully appreciate Mount Uraiwa but lack the strength to move!

Even at noon, it's still quite cool, making it a great family outing for all ages! The boatman will even slow down to allow guests to take photos at several photo-friendly spots. 📷 #HiharaLake #Uraiwa

It's the second largest of the Goshikinuma Ponds, reflecting sunlight beautifully and shining brightly. Unfortunately, it was the height of the rain, so we couldn't see the Agatsuma Mountains in the distance. Another nearby swamp is Ruri Swamp. It's hidden from the trail, so many people miss it. I really wanted to explore the whole area, but I ran out of time and only made it this far... I'd like to stay at the Urabandai Resort Hotel again someday and explore the whole thing. #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #Fukushima #Urabandai #Goshikinuma #Goshikinuma Lakes and Marshes

#springwander Hundreds of lakes were formed and born due to the water vapour explosion that occurred in 1888. Among them, the general name of about 30 large and small lakes such as Bishamon-numa, Aka-numa, Midoro-numa, Ryu-numa, and Benten-numa is called "Goshiki-numa Lake Group". In 2016, it was recognised as a one-star Michelin Green Guide. It is not the five swamps, but the name comes from the fact that various colours can be seen. Colour differences are due to weather, seasons, and volcanic substances contained in the water.
