Takino Suzuran Hillside National Government Park (国営滝野すずらん丘陵公園) is a national park located in the southern part of Sapporo, Japan.

The park is divided into six zones: the Mountain Stream Zone, Central Zone, Lodging Zone, Forest Experience Zone, Nature Observation Zone, and Preservation Zone.

In the winter, the park transforms into “Takino Snow World,” offering visitors a variety of outdoor activities. It’s a place where you can enjoy a full day of fun and exploration.

This park is suitable for a wide range of generations, from families with young children to adults. There are attractions designed for children of different ages, making it enjoyable for even the little ones. Adults can also have a great time hiking around the park. Throughout the park, you’ll find various flowers and plants that bloom beautifully each season, ensuring a delightful experience whenever you visit.

If you plan to drive, it’s best to arrive by around 10 AM on weekends and holidays, as the parking lot tends to get crowded. Additionally, there is approximately one bus per hour to the park, so it’s advisable to check the bus schedule for your outbound and return trips beforehand. Buses depart from Sapporo Subway Makomanai Station and Fukuzumi Station. The travel time by bus is about 30 minutes from Makomanai Station and approximately 50 minutes from Fukuzumi Station.
