Book Kamikawa hotels

Thinking of putting the rat race on hold and escaping to Asahikawa for a getaway? lastminute.co.nz lists a number of great places to drop your bags and rest your pretty little head.

Kamikawa's city heart is within walking distance of places to stay, like the Sounkyo Kanko Hotel and Mount View Hotel.

The La Vista Daisetsuzan is situated 16 kilometres from the central part of Kamikawa. Alternatively, the Asahidake Manseikaku Hotel Bear Monte is 15 kilometres away. Some other places to stay in this area are the Asahidake Manseikaku Hotel Deer Valley and the Asahidake Onsen Grand Hotel Daisetsu.

After you have gotten a handle on Kamikawa, why not explore a bit more of the region? The Hokkaido vicinity has many other attractions waiting to be explored. Check out the traditional villages, old towns and temples in Hokkaido, or simply head off with that someone special and enjoy the region's coastal plains and forests. Or join the locals snowboarding, skiing and cross-country skiing while you are here.

If you like sports and want to watch local games, you might choose to take a trip to Obihiro Racecourse, which is 95 kilometres to the south of Kamikawa. The Hotel Nikko Northland Obihiro and the Dormy Inn Obihiro are near the action.
