Enter the world of North Pole Stables, where horses live freely alongside people
After turning off the national highway, you will come across the typical Hokkaido scenery of the Tower Silo. Open the lock made of horseshoes and you will be transported to the world of horses.
Picking up horse poop in the morning, afternoon, and evening is an important part of caring for horses. It becomes important compost for the fields in Tokachi. The size of the polo is completely different between draft horses and ponies.
Just behind the park lies the "Forest of the Future." It is a planted forest, mainly of pine trees, but Hirukawa says he wants to gradually involve humans in growing it into a natural forest where an abundance of living creatures can live.
Come enjoy the forest, which changes color with the seasons, with wild birds, wild plants, nuts, wild vegetables, mushrooms, and more. You might even discover some of the horses' tatters in places like this.
Kindling and firewood are obtained from the next generation of forests.
We ask our customers to start the fire.
