Teshikaga

Among the towns of Hokkaido Prefecture, Teshikaga stands out for its position between the caldera lakes Mashu and Kussharo in Akan-Mashu National Park. Lake Mashu, enclosed by steep crater walls, has no rivers flowing into or out of it, while Lake Kussharo is the source of the Kushiro River. The area’s volcanic character is especially tangible at Kawayu Onsen, a hot-spring district with mineral-rich, strongly acidic waters heated by nearby Iōzan. Roads from town lead towards lake lookouts and the sulphurous slopes of the volcano. Move on to other webcams in eastern Hokkaido to compare volcanic landscapes and settlements around Teshikaga.
