The only quasi-national park in southern Hokkaido where unique native animals and plants can be seen.
In July 1958, Onuma Quasi-National Park was designated as the 13th in the nation and the only quasi-national park in southern Hokkaido.
The Park is at the center of Oshima Peninsula, about a 20-min drive from Hokkaido Shinkansen’s Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto Station. It covers a green marshy area with Onuma Lake, Konuma Lake, Junsai Swamp, etc. which were created by Mt. Koma-ga-take’s eruptions. Koma-ga-take is a uniquely-shaped, famous active volcano in southern Hokkaido. The whole park boasts 9083 hectares of the majestic landscape.
Onuma Lake, born from the repeated eruptions, is surrounded by dense forest and you can see animals and plants uniquely Hokkaido’s. Koma-ga-take is reflected on the Lake and the fantastical scenery will allow you to feel the power of nature.
In recent years, Hokkaido Shinkansen was opened through Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto Station. Better access has brought attention to this tourist spot.

There are several trails in the park, perfect for hiking and cycling. You can really experience the beauty of Hokkaido's nature here.
Onuma Quasi National Park in winter offers a totally different vibe. Sometimes the lake freezes over, and the mountains and trees around it get covered in snow, creating a peaceful and beautiful winter scene. The cold air and fresh atmosphere really make you feel refreshed.
It’s cold in winter, but the snowy scenery gives the place a whole different vibe!
Visiting Onuma Park in winter means you can try snowmobiles, ice fishing, and more. Plus, you have to try their super tasty and unique dango!
Sometimes you just need to get out with the family. I think this is the most beautiful spot in Onuma Park, hands down. The view of Mt. Komagatake, the lake, and the blue sky with clouds is just stunning.
I really admire how Japan limits the number of businesses in tourist areas, so local shops don't get out of hand. There’s usually just one boat operator here (and they don’t overcharge).
You can go fishing, boating, cycling, and there are some small restaurants too. It's a great place to visit after lunch.
