Mount Io, Hokkaido, Japan
Volcanic Mount IO
硫黄山 屈斜路湖 北海道 Lake Kussharo, Mount Io Hokkaido JAPAN
Mount Iō 硫黄山 is a volcano in the Akan Volcanic Complex of Hokkaidō, Japan. The mountain is located between the Lake Mashu and the Lake Kussharo. It sits within the borders of the town of Teshikaga. Lake Kussharo 屈斜路湖 is a caldera lake in Akan National Park 阿寒国立公園.
Mt. Io boasts over 1,500 large and small volcanic craters. While the composition of the discharge will differ depending on the fumarole, water vapor and volcanic gases (such as hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide) are constantly being emitted as white smoke.
The mountain was once mined for sulphur, hence its name. To the Ainu the mountain was known as Atosanupuri (naked mountain). The mountain is quite bare. Despite its bareness and being a rather low mountain at 508 metres it hosts alpine plant life, like colonies of Siberian Dwarf Pine.

Mt. Io:Untouched Hokkaido/硫黄山
Teshikaga Town: Mt. Io
Stand inches away from the pulse of the earth
With the distinctive smell of sulfur and alpine plants at much lower altitudes than they usually grow, Mt. Io is like a scene from another planet. Mt. Io is located around 3km from Kawayu Hot Springs, and is called Atosa-nupuri (bare mountain) in Ainu. To this day, sulfur plumes rise from various areas of the mountain, with an incredible rumbling sound. Large-scale sulfur mining once took place here, which played a significant role in Teshikaga Town's development.
Parking is free during the winter (late November to early April).
Parking fees apply during summer: 200 for a motorcycle, 500 for a car, 1,000 for a minibus, 2,000 for a large bus
*Mt. Io is currently closed to the public for safety reasons, as there is currently a risk of falling rocks.
Untouched Hokkaido
Eastern Hokkaido has a history and geography all of its own. Despite its location in Japan, it is actually on the North American tectonic plate, and as a result it is full of extremely rare plant life. Eastern Hokkaido locals have coexisted for generations with the area's rare wildlife and the nature in the national parks that those animals call home, and as a result there are many natural areas that are untouched by human hands.

Day 3 Hokkaido Pt. 2 (Mashuuko, Mt. Io-zan, Kussharoko)
Hokkaido - Akan Kohan i Mt. Io Zan
Akan National Park (阿寒国立公園, Akan Kokuritsu Kōen) is located in eastern Hokkaido. The park is well known for its three beautiful lakes: Lake Akan, Lake Mashu and Lake Kussharo. Lake Mashu is of particular fame. Although often covered by fog, its waters are some of the clearest in the world.
Mt. Iou/Io/Iwo (Io-zan), which is referred to as Atosanupuri (naked mountain) in Ainu, rises 512 m above sea level. This active volcano emits a great deal of smoke. The lava dome where solidified lava was upheaved is believed to have been created approximately 1,700 years ago, a relatively short history for a volcano. In the vicinity lies Tsutsujigahara, where white flowers of Ledum palustre L. spp. diversipilosum can be enjoyed in early July.

Hiking Mount Meakan (雌阿寒岳 Meakan-Dake) Hokkaido, Japan - Akan National Park
Hiking Mount Meakan in Hokkaido, Japan. Saturday June 6th 2015.
Mount Meakan, 雌阿寒岳 Meakan-Dake, is an active stratovolcano located in Akan National Park in Hokkaidō, Japan. At 1,499m, it is the highest mountain in the Akan Volcanic Complex.
Just two days before we climbed this mountain, an earthquake with a seismic intensity level of 7 struck the Lake Akan region. We believe this could have caused an increase in sulfuric gas activity at the volcano's crater. Because of this combined with strong wind and thick cloud, it was not possible to reach the summit. We turned back as we approached the ninth station.
Heading down the mountain, some of the clouds cleared and we saw a beautiful view of Lake Onneto and the surrounding hills and valleys below.
This is a beautiful mountain to hike. Climbed it or would like to? Share your thoughts below.

Przepiękne tereny morskie na Hokkaido - Kiritappu, Akkeshi [Japonia z Ignacym #24, Hokkaido Vlog #9]
Moim zdaniem ten vlog w jak najlepszy dotąd sposób pokazuje urok mojej wyspy Hokkaido. Kiritappu i Akkeshi to miejscowości, które znajdują się nieopodal mojego rodzinnego miasta Kushiro. Wychodzą na Ocean Spokojny i szczególnie Kiritappu jest przepięknym terenem, który ma mokradła i przylądki. Wcześniej nie miałem okazji przyjrzeć się tak intensywnie temu, co jest tam, bo dla nas Kiritappu jest za blisko, żeby było wyjątkowe, i nawet nie jeździmy tam często, ale tym razem odkryłem dużo niezwykłych widoków. Wszystko jest w tym odcinku!
