You can visit Lake Toya (attached to Shikotsu-Tōya National Park) by yourself in the morning. It is Japan's northernmost ice-free lake, which was formed after the frequent volcanic eruptions in the early 20th century. The nearby Mt Showa Shinzan still emits white smoke, since it bulged at the fault caused by the earthquake in 1943. The hot spring by the lake is one of the few hot spring resorts in Hokkaido. At the agreed time, the driver will pick you up from the hotel. And then we'll go to the 1,898 meters (6,227 feet) high Mt Yotei, which is a volcano by Lake Toya as well.
