Hokkaido is Japan's largest prefecture, consisting of the country's entire northern island and its surrounding islets. While its winter is harsh with a lot of snowfall, in summer it’s cooler than the rest of Japan and it doesn’t get hot and humid as much.
Its untouched nature with many great national parks makes it a very popular destination for outdoor lovers including campers and hikers during summer, as well as skiers and snowboarders in the colder seasons. Having a number of ski resorts, Hokkaido attracts millions of domestic and international skiers during winter. |
