Hokkaido, Japan's second largest island and northernmost prefecture, is separated from Honshu by the Tsugaru Strait, linked by the Seikan Tunnel. Known for its cold climate, it offers snowy winters and cool summers. The Snow Festival in Sapporo is a major draw, along with winter sports like snowboarding and skiing. In warmer months, visitors can enjoy hiking, cycling, and camping in its national parks from June to September.
