Swan Lake! A Wild Bird's Sanctuary Near Shin Chitose AirportLake Utonai
At the end of our autumn travel in Hokkaido, we looked for somewhere to see near Shin Chitose Airport and found this lake. In fact, Utonai Lake is a sanctuary of wild birds such as Whooper Swan, which is registered under the Ramsar Convention. Wild swans were so close to me, I was very impressed! ◎Easy access by bus from Shin Chitose Airport. There's a parking area at nearby road station. By the way, if the wild birds come close to you, please don't feed them!
