Biei's Essential Panorama
Biei’s landscape is defined by the rolling agricultural hills of the Patchwork and Panorama Roads, featuring iconic solitary trees like the Ken and Mary Poplar and the Seven Stars Tree. The terrain transitions from vibrant seasonal flower fields at Shikisai Hill to the rugged volcanic peaks of the Daisetsuzan National Park, including Mount Tokachi.
