In winter, snow covers the water surface, so the blue water cannot be seen. Instead, from 10/22 to the following 4/21, it is illuminated from sunset to 21:00 (lights turn on from 16:30 in December, 17:00 in January, 17:30 in February, and 18:00 in March), creating a unique winter scenery where snow and standing withered trees are lit up. Do not enter areas outside the designated viewpoint as it is dangerous.Winter information: 美瑛町公式サイト（2026-09-10 確認。期間は2026-27シーズン）. The operator has not visited in winter. Conditions change with snowfall, so please check the official source before you go.
