Shirogane Blue Pond
The Shirogane Blue Pond, located near the town of Biei in Hokkaido, is a stunning natural attraction famous for its otherworldly, vivid blue waters. The pond gets its mesmerizing blue hue from natural minerals, such as aluminum, that are carried into the water from nearby hot springs and reflect sunlight in a unique way. Surrounded by birch and larch trees, many of which stand submerged in the water, the pond creates a striking and surreal landscape that changes with the seasons and lighting conditions. In autumn, the contrast of golden leaves with the blue waters is especially breathtaking, while in winter, the pond and surrounding trees are often dusted with snow, transforming it into a magical frozen scene. The Shirogane Blue Pond has become a popular spot for photographers and nature lovers alike, offering a tranquil yet unforgettable experience in Hokkaido’s natural beauty.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sapporo.
How much does Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sapporo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sapporo is not rushed.
Is Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sapporo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sapporo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sapporo and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hokkaido: Biei Blue Pond and Furano Flower Farm Day Trip start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sapporo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sapporo?
+
On Outty we rank every Sapporo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sapporo Bar Hopping Food Tour, Wagashi traditional japanese sweets class, Sapporo Private Tour with a Local – Highlights & Hidden Gems. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sapporo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sapporo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
