Find a view and a small meal.
足寄町
Ashoro is a town in Hokkaido’s Tokachi region. Begin with travel information at the central roadside station, then choose the paleontology museum. Distinguish the closed Ginga Line from current road and bus transport and check access to each site.
This guide covers places within Ashoro, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
