Tokachi Millennium Forest

The forest extends across a plateau and wooded foothills of the Hidaka mountain range, featuring diverse gardens, trails, and educational facilities.

The environmental conservation project was initiated by entrepreneur Mitsushige Hayashi to offset carbon footprint from his newspaper business in 2004.

The Earth Garden and Meadow Garden incorporate Japanese native species and natural planting techniques that reflect local environmental practices.

The forest welcomes visitors from April 20 to October 15, between 9:30 AM and 5:00 PM, with Segway tours and cheese-making experiences.

The design includes wave-like structures across the valley, created through collaboration between local designers and international landscape architects.
