Hidaka Mountains
Aerial perspective of Hokkaido's most rugged and untouched mountain range stretching across the horizon.

A stunning agricultural patchwork quilt of fields that changes from vibrant green to golden brown depending on the season.
Kushiro Shitsugen
Views of the edges of Japan's largest wetland and marsh habitat as the flight begins its final descent.

Pacific Coastline
Panoramic views of the rugged southern coast of Hokkaido where the land meets the North Pacific.
Cape Erimo
On clear days, the distant but distinct 'nose' of Hokkaido can be seen jutting out into the ocean.
Kushiro Port
View the active fishing and industrial docks of one of Hokkaido's most important maritime hubs during the approach.
The right side is ideal for those who enjoy vast ocean horizons. If the flight path takes a more southerly route, you will get a better view of the dramatic cliffs near Hiroo and the mouth of the Tokachi River.
