Eniwa, in the southern part of the Ishikari plain south of Sapporo on the approach to the New Chitose Airport, is a suburban community known for its Eniwa Botanical Garden and the Nupuri highland forest park, whose position as a gateway between Sapporo's urban amenities and the Shikotsu-Toya National Park wilderness makes it a natural transitional community in the greater Sapporo-New Chitose airport corridor. Eniwa Onsen Hokkaido draws on sodium and bicarbonate thermal waters from the geothermal resources of the southern Sapporo plain zone, offering restorative baths in a gateway community whose Eniwa Botanical Garden, easy airport access from New Chitose, and proximity to Lake Shikotsu's ultra-clear caldera waters create an accessibly positioned spa setting for Hokkaido arrivals and departures. The Eniwa Botanical Garden's Hokkaido native plant collections, the Fureai Nature Park woodland recreation area, and the convenient New Chitose Airport access via the Chitose Line making Eniwa one of the first or last destinations for Hokkaido thermal spa visitors create a practically located and naturally pleasant gateway spa destination.
