Description

This trekking tour covers the entire Shiretoko Five Lakes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a special protected area of Shiretoko National Park, including the elevated boardwalk. This groundbreaking forest adventure experience is the first of its kind in Japan, and is led by a licensed guide through areas inhabited by brown bears. You can observe not only the lakes, but also wildlife, wild birds, alpine plants, autumn leaves, and other seasonal changes in nature. Because no animals are fed, all the creatures you encounter are genuine wild animals.
