Winter Bus Schedule
Furano Tourism is happy to announce that this winter there will be increased seasonal bus service between Furano town and the ski resort.
The Lavender Bus has added three (!) additional morning busses per day. These will depart from JR Furano Station and run the regular route through Kitanomine to the New Furano Prince Hotel at 8:00, 8:50, and 9:40. The rest of the Lavender Bus schedule remains unchanged.
In the evening, Furano Tourism will again operate the Evening Shuttle Bus in the opposite direction – from the resort area down into town, to provide visitors with a wide selection of restaurants.
In addition, the Goryo Line operated by Furano City also provides transportation to/from the Kitanomine area several times a day. See timetable for details.
