Northern Hokkaido

Dive deep into the culture by seeing first hand the sustainability efforts that are being enacted across Hokkaido through different ways locals have adapted to living off the land while also experiencing different adventures across Northern Japan. The virtual adventure consists of three different locations across Hokkaido, each offering its own unique cultural experience. Traveling to Shimokawa, a town considered one of the “Future Cities” by the Japanese government that is known for its plentiful forest resources. Entering into the vast forest of Hokkaido, now it’s time to relax and find peace while forest bathing. Along the way to these paths, we’ll collect items such as twigs and leaves from the Sakahlin fir which they will then use to create our very own essential oils, for a true understanding of what living at peace with nature looks like.
