About this place
Lake Shikotsu is a caldera lake in Chitose City, and this point is in Shikotsuko Onsen, the small hot spring village on its eastern shore where the visitor facilities, boat piers and lakeside hotels are. The water is known for its exceptional clarity.
Shikotsuko Onsen is about 35 minutes by car from Chitose IC on the Do-o Expressway and about 50 minutes from New Chitose Airport, which makes it an easy first or last stop on a Hokkaido trip. Park in the paid lakeside car park in the village and walk to the shore.

How to enter this in your car navigation
- On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
- Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
- Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
- Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.
Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix. That is fine, because it only refines the pin.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the mapcode for Lake Shikotsu (Shikotsuko Onsen)?
- The mapcode is 867 063 116*32, pointing at a spot in 北海道. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 42.770240, 141.403600. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
- What is a mapcode?
- A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
- How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
- On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
- What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
- They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
