Geocache Description:

Shakubetsu station was opened in 1920. The name is from Ainu word “Sappe”, that means “dried river”. It was also the starting station of Shakubetsu line, that was for transportation of the coal mined in Shakubetsu coal mine. However, in 1970, the mine was closed. There is the small house that was used for the movie made. The movie was HANAMIZUKI, that was released in 2010. Please bring your pen.

尺別駅は大正9年(1920年)に開業しました。駅名の尺別はアイヌ語の「サッ・ペ」(かれた川)から出たものです。1970年に尺別炭鉱が閉山するまでは尺別鉄道線の始発駅でもありました。2010年に公開された映画「ハナミズキ」の撮影に使用された住宅が駅の近くにあります。筆記具を持参ください。
