Hidaka travel guide and discussion

Roadside station in Hidaka-cho, Hokkaido This is my second visit, and I like it because of the abundance of vegetables. Colorful, freshly picked vegetables are lined up, and it's fun just to look at them. There is also a Hokkaido convenience store, Seico Mart, on the premises.

"Tonkatsu Tsuchimoto" in Nagoya is a hidden gem that requires advance reservations. With only about ten seats, the restaurant boasts a simple and unassuming ambiance, yet it's renowned for its exceptional tonkatsu (fried pork cutlet) quality. The restaurant meticulously selects premium pork from top brands, employing precise oil temperature control and expert craftsmanship to create a superb pork cutlet with a thin, crispy exterior and a tender, juicy interior. The batter and meat are perfectly integrated, offering distinct layers of flavor. In addition to the classic tenderloin and filet mignon, the special pork cutlet sauce is the perfect finishing touch. Due to the limited seating and its popularity among locals, reservations by phone or through the official channels are highly recommended to avoid disappointment. This is a small, artisanal shop worth a special trip to experience the essence of Japanese tonkatsu. #NovemberDestinations2025

#September2024 Hidaka Town is a great tourist destination filled with natural beauty. When I arrived here, the first thing that caught my eye was the magnificent view of the snow-capped mountains in the distance. ❄️🏞️On a clear day, the white peaks of the snow-capped mountains form a sharp contrast with the blue sky, like a beautiful painting that makes me stop and admire it. 🌅💙 As the seasons change, the autumn colors of Hidaka Town are even more stunning. 🍁🍂Walking along the trail, the fallen leaves under your feet make rustling sounds, as if telling the story of autumn. Such scenes make me feel the changes of nature and the cycle of life.

Hokkaido is also famous as a horse breeding area. As a result, there are many ranches scattered around the area where retired racehorses spend the rest of their lives. Among them, Versailles Resort Farm is open and easy to visit. Many famous retired horses spend the rest of their lives here. There is a cafe inside the facility, and the menu is quite delicious. You can also have the amazing experience of riding and playing with retired horses. It's been a while since I visited, but the number of retired horses has increased and the facility seems to have been improved. If you like horses, you should definitely visit. However, please be sure to follow the instructions when visiting. #DomesticTravel #Hokkaido #HokkaidoTrip #HokkaidoTourism #Horses #VersaillesResortFarm

We took a stroll around Versailles Resort Farm on a rainy day. Although we called it a stroll, there was only one other pasture across the road, and the area where people could walk was surprisingly small. There were stables and a cafe inside, so you can spend some time there. #HokkaidoTrip #KeihanGroupCampaign #SummerWeekendTrip

I visited Versailles Resort Farm in Hidaka in the rain during the summer. This place is now famous for the Yogibo commercial, and many people were visiting. It is a relatively new farm, so the buildings are clean. Apparently you can even stay overnight. #HokkaidoTrip #KeihanGroupCampaign #SummerWeekendTrip

Versailles Resort Farm is a ranch where mainly retired horses live. Here you can see horses that have retired after having been active as racehorses. Before you can visit, you must first say hello at the cafe in the back. This cafe is also stylishly designed, and you can enjoy delicious coffee and sweets while watching the horses.
