Traveling from Sapporo to Datemombetsu is primarily served by the Limited Express 'Kamui' and 'Soya' trains, both of which are part of the Hokkaido Railway Company. The 'Kamui' Limited Express offers a journey time of approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes, reaching speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph). It makes several stops along the way, providing access to various towns and scenic views of the Hokkaido landscape. The 'Soya' Limited Express also serves this route, typically taking about 4 hours and stopping at more stations than the 'Kamui', making it a better choice for those interested in exploring smaller locations along the way. Both trains feature reserved and non-reserved seating options, as well as refreshments for passengers. While there are no high-speed trains on this route, the Limited Express services ensure a comfortable and direct travel experience between these two locations.
