If this was a part of your "Furano Tour" package, here's what to expect: heat (summer time), crowds, lines, dead flowers, dusts, and alpacas. When you arrive, your bus, along with 20 other's parks outside of a building selling vegetables and souvenirs. When you enter, you can walk the garden, take a 5 minutes tracker ride (500 yen), or pay to drive a golf cart around the facility. The lilacs were all gone by the end of July, maybe too hot this year, and the crowds were substantial. Not fun for kids or the elderly. If you despise tourists you won't want to come here, there were many.

I will not recommend to visit in Spring. I visited on 24 May and there was hardly any flowers to see. There is some local produce from the farm like Asparagus and Potatoes for sale as well as other products from around Hokkaido in the gift shop. There is also some Alpacas to see that will require a separate admission price.

Given it is wide open space, one should be wise to pick spring or autumn to see this place. Not to mention time of the day. Parking is not free and we were charged Y500 per entry. The tractor ride is another Y500 which take you down midway, stop for a couple of minutes to take photos, and then fetch you back to the starting point.

We came here in early July and was able to see a lot of flowers including lavender. The scenery was very beautiful, even though the flowers haven’t bloomed fully yet.
A better time to see the flowers in full bloom would be mid to end July.

To be fair we went in May when they are just starting to prepare for full spring in June. Entrance is free in May. Tulips are already in bloom with some beatiful lavenders. Overall, farm is very wecoming and nice.
Will be very better in spring. Alpaca farm within the area is a bit small though.

We planneed for this farm out of the many as it came very highly recommended by friends, and it wad well worth it. From it names, lots of floral colors to see in all four seasons, even in Aug (well past the lavender season) there were beautiful rolling fields of red and yellow flowers - plenty of postcard shots taken! BIG PLUS: they have a huge sun flower field too!
2 points to note: icecream you'd get everywhere so dont bother, but the melon and fresh tomato and corn (ask for yellow, not the white ones) and potato cakes SHOULDNT BE MISSED! Lots of tourists groups, its a huge place so they wont step on your toes but just keep your calm.

We visit in the winter so there's no flower field, but they offer snow motor rides. It's a lot of fun, but the safety standard is questionable. Our tour guide touted it as "so safe that anyone who can ride a bicycle won't have problem", in fact it takes at least some strength to control the motor, somewhat like cart racing. And there's no safety belt. A lady from our group fell off and was crushed under the motorcycle. Luckily it was not serious, but the park had no solution for that and in the end our tour company offered to take her to hospital.
There's an Alpaca farm nearby where you can pay to feed and touch them, it's not very impressive.

Visited Shikisai no Oka on the 20th of May.
It was a clear day and the mountain range was well defined with the great visibility.
Only the tulip garden was in full bloom but this alone made for great photo opportunities!
Entry into the park is 200¥. Although it isn’t compulsory, it is highly suggested that you do so as it helps the good people here with the maintenance.
Besides the flowers, you can visit the alpaca ranch within the park where it costs 500¥ per entry and 100¥ for a basket of feed which contains 8-10 lettuce leafs. This is a great experience for first time encounters with these amazing animal.
Additionally, there are buggies and carts which can be rented for a reasonable fee during this period. I however did not see anyone doing so.
You can expect to spend anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours in this lovely park. Add 15-45 minutes if you were to visit the alpacas! Like most of Hokkaido, parking is plenty and free of charge.

Went to ride on snowmobile at Shikisai no Oka. This is a flower garden in summer/autumn but turns into a snowmobile centre in winter. We went on a snowmobile each and followed a tour guide along a snow circuit over hills. We stopped at the top of a hill where the snow was more than knee deep. We took many nice photos and memories. The snowmobile ride was very enjoyable. Must visit and try.

How long would be an adequate amount of time to stay at this flower park?
Written June 20, 2019
Well, I spent 1 hour there mostly for taking photos and enjoying the view. But if you want to ride tractor or visit the alpaca farm then maybe 2 hours

Hi is shikisai no oka flowers available during mid may??? I'm planning to visit
Written March 19, 2019
Question about the orange phone in the farm to call Biei Taxi. Do we need to talk in Japanese to book a taxi, or does the person on the other end (the taxi company officer) understand English?
Thanks!!

Hi, was this flower farm still open in December? Did you visit in December?
Written August 6, 2018
Sorry for late reply. The flowers are gone by Dec and should have a layer of snow. Most farmlands may turn to snowland for snow related activities. Flowers are good from end June to mid August of each year.

2.3 kilos yes between 25 to 30 minutes,
Taxi, im really not sure, the area is quite famous it will depend,
