Hitsujigaoka Forest

In this episode, we discover Hitsujigaoka Forest, located in the southern suburbs of Sapporo city. In fact, the forest of this region was once completely destroyed by a big fire, but has since regenerated after a long period, making it a unique area within Japan. Our program host will visit an arboretum (run by the Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute), which contains over 300 different species of trees and is open to the public to explore for free. You can experience Hitsujigaoka’s nature up close by observing a wide variety of trees as well as witnessing the rare footage of wild birds that live in this forest.
