2026 Kariho Park (雁穂公園) Water Play Area: Full-Day Course

The Kariho Park Water Play Area is a free water play spot that appears only in summer at Kariho Park (雁穂公園) in Higashi Ward, Sapporo. In 2026 it is open from Friday, July 3 to Sunday, August 23, from 10:00 to 16:00. The venue is Kariho Park in Higashi Ward, Sapporo, and because the water is shallow, even small children putting their feet in water for the first time can play without fear. Use is free, and it is the kind of everyday neighborhood water spot where local children naturally gather. In the morning, head to Sapporo Satland. At this agricultural park spread with fields and lawns, you can watch the animals and see how crops grow while strolling in air quite different from the city center. After lunch, move on to the Sea Fountain at Moerenuma Park. The sculpted jets of water, which rise high only during summer, make a fine warm-up for the water play to come. Then in the afternoon, return to Kariho Park and splash about until closing time. Because the day is built to move from watching water to entering it, even little ones can get used to the water while they prepare themselves. Openings can be canceled for weather or cleaning, so check the City of Sapporo's information before you set out.
