Garden of Wind: A Poetic Garden Retreat in Furano’s Quiet Hills

Introduction: A Garden Touched by Wind and Story

Set against Furano’s endless blue skies, Garden of Wind offers more than beauty—it offers silence, sensation, and story.
Here, flowers bloom in rhythm with the wind, and the landscape invites not sightseeing, but stillness.

The garden is located just a 2-minute walk from the New Furano Prince Hotel reception, within the Picnic Garden area.
After check-in, a shuttle transports guests (approx. 4 minutes) to the garden itself—an oasis wrapped in trees, story, and seasonal light.

A Garden That Blooms With Meaning

Throughout spring to autumn, around 450 varieties of seasonal flowers blossom gently along the paths.
Famous as the filming location of the drama “Garden of Wind”, the garden carries an air of poetry and reflection.

Highlights include:

  • The Rose Garden: Showcasing both hardy wild roses and delicate old varieties.

  • The Wildflower Path: A nostalgic trail that feels familiar, even on a first visit.

Every step reveals a landscape designed not for perfection, but for presence.

Sensory Immersion: The True Luxury of Travel

Garden of Wind is not about checking off sights—it’s about immersing in scent, sound, breeze, light, and the feeling beneath your feet.

Early mornings and twilight hours offer the most peace—when birds and wind compose a natural symphony, and the garden becomes a sanctuary.

Read on a bench. Walk without purpose. Let yourself be carried by the breeze.
This is slow luxury, born from silence and nature.

Garden of Hokkaido: Part of the Garden Highway

Garden of Wind is one of eight signature gardens along the Hokkaido Garden Highway—a 250-kilometer route connecting Daisetsu, Furano, and Tokachi.
These gardens embody the spirit of Hokkaido, each designed with regional character, seasonal rhythm, and cultural depth.

Often compared to England’s Cotswolds or Germany’s Romantic Road, the Garden Highway is a celebration of slow, mindful tourism, blending landscape, cuisine, and local life.

Among them, Garden of Wind stands out as the one that speaks softly, but deeply.
