The ranch covers a large area, and the bears are divided into several relatively fixed areas according to their age. Visitors can purchase apple cookies and other foods here and experience the fun of feeding the bears.
【Noboribetsu Hell Valley】: Located in Noboribetsu, Hokkaido, Japan, this is a volcanic crater ruin near Lake Toya, formed approximately 10,000 years ago. There is an area with a diameter of about 450 meters that still emits white smoke, and is barren with a strong sulfurous odor. Noboribetsu Hell Valley gets its name from its resemblance to hell. Noboribetsu Onsen is also very famous in Hokkaido due to its geothermal resources.
