This is a 2km walk to see the unusual "Furepe Falls", a waterfall that falls directly into the sea from a cliff gap. On clear days, the Shiretoko mountain range is beautiful here. You can also see how the Shiretoko 100 Square Meter Movement is restoring the former development site to forest. It is often possible to see Ezo deer and wild birds here. The trail may be closed due to brown bears, snowfall, storms, etc. If we know of a closure in advance, we will contact you by mobile phone and offer you cancellation (free of charge) or an alternative course (same price), or a different date and time, if you wish. If the trail is closed after you meet at the site, we will offer you an alternative course (same price) that is available for the remaining time.
This is the easiest route on the Shiretoko trekking course. It is not a paved road that wheelchairs can pass through, but it is maintained to some extent so that even small children and the elderly can walk.
You may encounter various animals such as sika deer and wild birds. Professional staff will look around and close if there are brown bears.
You can observe how the land that became farmland due to the reclamation of Shiretoko, which began in 1914, is being restored to forest. There is also an exhibition facility for materials.
