Lake Shikaribetsu Bottom Rail
Magical! Go and see the railway track submerged in a beautiful lake
Known as the lake in the sky, Lake Shikaribetsu is located at the highest altitude in Hokkaido. A spot at Lake Shikaribetsu that went viral on social media is the railway tracks submerged in the lake. One can see what appears to be railway tracks sinking into the beautiful, clear waters of the lake. It is a mysterious sight that appears to have popped out of an anime film. Why are there railway tracks in a lake? These are, in fact, rails used for pulling sightseeing boats onto land during the winter season. As the lake freezes in winter, we recommend visiting on a fine day in other seasons if you want to catch a glimpse of these submerged "railway tracks."
