レークヒル・ファーム-Lake Hill Farm

What is Lake Hill Farm?

Lake Hill Farm is a farm located in southern Hokkaido with spectacular views of both Lake Tōya and Mount Yōtei.
The cows roam freely in the large natural range and provide us with delicious milk. To produce this delicious milk the grass they are fed and its soil is maintained day in, day out. Our role as dairy farmers is to maintain a good diet for the cows. We are confident in our milk, which we produce with our own hands, so we can guarantee it is safe. Part of the farm has a shop and cafe where you can enjoy the atmosphere of the farm while taking in the beautiful sights of Lake Tōya.

Things to do at Lake Hill Farm

At the gelato shop, you can gaze at Mount Yōtei while enjoying some homemade gelato.
We use plenty of fresh milk in our gelato so it’s a great way to see what Lake Hill Farm has to offer. With a subdued sweetness, we focus on the natural flavors of the fruits and vegetables harvested from our own and other local farms. The gelato is all locally sourced. With about 20 varieties to choose from, it’s a treat just picking something out.

Have some tea and fill your stomach at the cafe.
Take a break in the cafe and treat yourself to with some nice dairy treats like some flan or some cream puffs. You can also enjoy fresh milk or some coffee. You can also enjoy lunch favorites like curry or pizza made with locally grown wheat. You can always get your sweets to go and we suggest you enjoy them outside in the fresh air.
