Obihiro Racecourse (Banei Tokachi)

帯広競馬場(ばんえい十勝)

Obihiro Racecourse is home to banei racing, a unique Hokkaido tradition where draft horses pull heavy sleds up sand inclines. This distinctly Hokkaido attraction appears in Silver Spoon and represents the region's deep connection between agriculture, livestock, and local culture.

📺 Scene from the Anime

The unique banei horse racing is featured as a distinctly Hokkaido cultural experience that broadens Hachiken's understanding of the agricultural community he has joined.
