Kushiro is a great gate way to explore the Eastern Hokkaido area. Japan is still imposing international travel restrictions at the time of writing, but why not take this new flight into your future travel planning? Here’s the detail!

Where is Kushiro?

Kushiro Airport is located in the south of the Eastern Hokkaido.

Kushiro Shitsugen Ntaional Park, which is the biggest marshland in Japan, is a popular place to visit in Kushiro. You can also easily make a day trip to other tourism areas such as Lake Kussharo and Akan.

There is another route as well.

Are you thinking to fly from Osaka, instead of Tokyo? Peach got you covered as well. There is already an existing route between Osaka (KIX) to Kushiro. The Eastern Hokkaido is actually more accessible than many would think!
