All Reviews of Shirogane Blue Pond

After traveling across that endless expanse of land, the moment I entered the “Blue Pond,” I was truly amazed! I got up early and arrived at the “Blue Pond” before the crowds appeared. The air was fresh, the water was deep blue, and the dead trees were reflected in the pond... Although it isn't very large, standing here and admiring the unusual scenery made me reluctant to leave for a long time!

At Shirogane Blue Pond, I saw the Tiffany blue surface of the water. Many conifers stand quietly in the pond, making Shirogane Blue Pond look just like a scene from a mythical world. But there were quite a lot of visitors, so it was a little noisy.

A dreamlike spot with mesmerizing light and shadows, as if you're in a secluded paradise. It's just... too crowded.

Oh my gosh! The vivid blue before my eyes was so beautiful it left me speechless!! It felt like stepping right into a computer wallpaper, so dreamy it almost didn't seem real.
The clear blue water and reflections of the dead trees created mesmerizing layers of blue in the sunlight. It looked beautiful no matter how I photographed it.
No wonder it's packed with people every day—everyone comes to see the legendary “Blue Pond” with their own eyes.
Although it was absolutely overflowing with visitors that day, the moment I saw the view, I still thought—it was worth it!

I took a sightseeing bus from Furano and finally arrived at the dreamy hidden gem of Hokkaido: Shirogane Blue Pond!

In the sunlight, the water turned a stunning Tiffany blue. As the light shifted and the viewing angle changed, the blue of the pond showed mesmerizing variations in depth and shade. It sparkled beautifully and was truly breathtaking!

The water at the Blue Pond has a dreamy, deep blue color, and it shows different shades depending on the weather and light. It’s stunningly beautiful. With the dead trees in the pond and the peaceful scenery, it feels like a fairy-tale world. It’s a natural beauty in Hokkaido you shouldn’t miss.

The color changes when the sunlight hits it—so dreamy.
Photos look amazing even without filters.
That view of the dead trees standing in the water is really unique, with this quiet, mysterious vibe.

The dead trees against the blue water make for a really distinctive scene. The color changes depending on the weather—on a cloudy day, the blue isn’t as intense.

The beauty of the Shirogane Blue Pond is beyond imagination. Surrounded by forest, whether it's summer or autumn, the reflections of trees and sky on the water give this place a peaceful and mysterious vibe.

The pond is formed by spring water rich in aluminum hydroxide from the upstream Shirogane Onsen area mixing with the Biei River.
