    “Murakami Farm” is located in Eniwa, on the way from Shin-Chitose Airport to Sapporo. It is the only place in Hokkaido, where you can tour the farm on a Segway.

    After you put on a helmet and hear the instructions, try hopping on a Segway. Riding a Segway is simply standing on it. Segway is a two-wheeled, electric-powered vehicle from America. The rider controls the speed and direction by shifting his/her weight.

    You will be familiarizing yourself with a Segway in a practice area on the farm. In no time, you will have a full control, even driving it in a zig-zag pattern.

    You can actually “doodle” on “hay rolls”! Leave a message to commemorate your visit.

    A serene farm, where you can hear the sounds of wild birds. Enjoy freely venturing around the farm during an allotted time.

    A soft-serve ice cream made with the milk from the farm. You must try it! It is very rich.
