Poropinai

Poropinai（位於千歲市）是支笏湖的休閒娛樂景點之一。因為這裡允許用火，也可以在這裡烤肉。因為湖面的波浪不會很高所以夏天也可以游泳。（因為湖面沒有設置救生員，所以如果要游泳必須自己負責安全。）夏天時飲食店也會開張營業。Poropinai在阿伊努語中意謂著大的乾涸沼澤。

Poropinai (Chitose City) is one of the free leisure spots on Lake Shikotsu. You are allowed to use fire there, so it is possible to enjoy barbecues at this spot for free. The waves on the lake are not high, and anyone can enjoy swimming or playing there. However, as there are no lifesavers, visitors need to be responsible for their own safety. In summer, there is a cafe selling food and drinks. The meaning of Poropinai is 'big dried-up valley' in the language of the Ainu, who are indigenous people of Hokkaido. This spot is only really accessible by car.
