Tonden Nishi Park (屯田西公園) Water Play Area (Water Slide)

About this spot

The Tonden Nishi Park Water Play Area (Water Slide) is a free water play spot inside Tonden Nishi Park (屯田西公園) in Kita-ku, Sapporo. In 2026 it is open from Sunday, July 5 to Sunday, August 23, from 9:00 to 16:00. The main attraction is the three-lane water slide, and the ride is so good for a free park that children line up for it over and over. Besides the slide there is also a shallow water play area, so little ones who are still afraid to slide can play starting with just dipping their feet in. There are restrooms on site and you can change there, which is a real help. Because there are three lanes the turnover is quick, so waiting times rarely grow long even on busy days.

Season & hours

Tips

The period and the opening may shift depending on weather conditions, so check the situation on the day before you set out. Take turns on the slide and follow the on-site rules and the staff's instructions. You can scrape your elbows and knees while sliding, so a rash guard and adhesive bandages give peace of mind. It opens at 9:00, so arriving in the morning is one option on days when you want to avoid the crowds. It closes at 16:00, so start packing up by 15:30.

Best time to visit

Arrive at 13:30 and you can spend a full two and a half hours until evening focused on the slides.
