Kutchan Town
Surrounded with the vast nature of the Niseko Mountains facing Mt. Yotei, we produce one of our specialties, Kutchan Jaga (a potato grown in the area). With a characteristically sweet flavor, it receives high acclaim inside and outside Hokkaido. Lake Hangetsu and Kagami Pond show distinctive features during the different seasons, and in winter, the highest quality of silky snow greatly attracts overseas tourists to Kutchan’s ski resorts.
