Where to Ride a Snowmobile in Sapporo, Japan

We had five days to fill on a recent trip to Sapporo. In town for the Snow Festival, it was our first trip to Sapporo so much of that time was used for the usual first-timer things like exploring the city, a day trip to Otaru, skiing at Teine, and maybe an afternoon at an onsen.

I’m a big fan of Klook so I searched through their Hokkaido activities for interesting ideas and found two – ice fishing and snowmobile riding.
