Location The Kussharo Prince Hotel is a resort hotel located on the western shore of Lake Kussharo. The lake is in the center of Akan National Park, which is composed of three big caldera lakes, beautiful forests and mountains including an active volcano. The Shiretoko Peninsula (World Heritage Site) in only two hours by car and in the south you may visit Kushiro marshland by train, car or canoe. The altitude of the Kussharo Lake is 110m. The height of the surrounding mountains ranges from a few hundred meters to 1503m (Meakan-dake, the highest point in the park).
Access The conference location can be reached through several routes. The quickest way is to fly to Memanbetsu Airport. The airport is served by two major Japanese airlines (JAL and ANA/AD). There are six flights from Tokyo Haneda Airport every day, and the flight time is approximately one and a half hours. We will provide charter buses to the hotel, which takes approximately one hour. Another choice is to fly to Kushiro Airport from Haneda. It is served well as well. However, the distance to the hotel is a little far. We will provide bus service if necessary. From some Asian cities it may be convenient to fly directly to Sapporo Airport and take a commuter flight to Oshamanbetsu or Kushiro. You may even take train from Sapporo to Mashuu station via Kushiro. It will take three hours plus one and a half hours, but in the second part of your trip the railway track run through the Kushiro marshland.
