Hi, I’m Tabi!

Yakumo in southern Hokkaido has Pacific and Sea of Japan coasts. Begin here with the Funka Bay park and urban museum. Do not combine Kumaishi on the other coast into the same short walk; plan transport separately.

This guide covers places within Yakumo, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Funka Bay Panorama Park

噴火湾パノラマパーク

Getting there

Yakumo Town Museum

八雲町郷土資料館

A museum for town history and local culture, pictured outside in 2010. The photo does not show current exhibits. Check official guidance for related wood-carved-bear collections and visitor arrangements.

Getting there
Locate the museum at Suehirocho154 and check current urban walking and transport connections, separately from the coastal park.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Town guidance introduces scallops and other seafood, alongside dairy products such as cheese. Check origin, ingredients, milk and shellfish allergens and availability; local origin of every ingredient, a shop or price is not guaranteed.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
