Ikutora Station (幾寅駅 Ikutora-eki) is a railway station on the Nemuro Main Line of JR Hokkaido located in Minamifurano, Hokkaidō, Japan. The station opened on December 6, 1902.

The station was used as fictional Horomai Station (幌舞駅) in Yasuo Furuhata's 1999 film Poppoya. The station building still hangs out a signboard of Horomai, not Ikutora, over the front entrance.
