The Lake Kanayama Lavender Garden in Minamifurano Town is a little-known place to see rare lavender fields on a lakeside. You can enjoy the spectacular contrast of purple lavenders against the blue lake and the green mountains. It is also much less crowded compared to the other famous lavender spots in the Furano area. The lavenders usually bloom from mid-July to early August.

This is a video slideshow of images from my September 2010 test and training ride to Onuma National Park in southern Hokkaido. I was training for a longer tour and this was a great opportunity to try out my new iBex BoB trailer for a 4-day weekend of cycling and camping. The weather was perfect, the beer was cold, and the sunsets were nothing short of spectacular!
