Asahikawa is about two hours from Sapporo by road, so a zoo trip from the city is a full day by default. Arrive early if you can; the zoo is spread over a hillside, and the animal houses take longer to get round than you’d think.
Visit Asahiyama Zoo, Biei’s Blue Pond and seasonal Hokkaido sights on a 10.5-hour Sapporo day trip, with transport and a souvenir included.
