kirarockie 0 Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 thanks "black mountain" for the response - I had accessed the information on google maps, but I had heard they shut a lot of roads in winter so was more concerned about taking the wrong route.

thursday 1 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Errrmmmm. Only a few models have Ingwish GPS. Well worth getting. The RAV4 from Toyota RentaCar at Shin Chitose has it. Just get the girl to input Tomamu before you set off. I did Shin Chitose -> Furano in the summer. It's like 250km and I was knackered especially after my flight. It's a national highway, 2-lane dual carriageway. The Northern Road. I would not do it in winter, but that's just me being a whimp. Here's the Map for reference, but the GPS is a lot better.
