How about a casual morning walk in the forest? Wear snowshoes and walk around Furepe Falls in winter. Let's enjoy a snowshoe walk on a course filled with the charm of Shiretoko in winter, with the destination of "Furepe Waterfall" at the end of the forest and snowfield! ☆ Flow of the day ☆ Around 8:45 [Pick-up] 15 minutes before the tour starts, we will go around each hotel and pick you up. Around 9:00 [Arrive at the Shiretoko Nature Center] We will meet with the local gathering, move to the entrance of the forest and give a lecture. Around 9:15 [Departure] When you're ready to put on your snowshoes, it's time to depart! Feel the forest of Shiretoko using your five senses! Around 11:15 [End of walk] When you return to the entrance, take off your snowshoes and finish your walk. Those who meet locally will be disbanded here.

With snowshoes, you can even go over the snow!

Attach the snowshoes prepared by Shinra to your own shoes and take a walk. If you're wearing snowshoes, you'll be fine even on the fresh, fluffy snow! You will feel like you are walking on clouds. Since it is an easy-to-walk course, beginners and elementary school children can participate with peace of mind.

The frozen Furepe Falls...

The final destination of the Furepe Falls promenade, "Furepe Falls". Depending on the seasonal winds from autumn to winter, it transforms into an ice waterfall. Let's go see Furepe Falls, an art created by nature!

This course is packed with the charm of winter!

The forest where the trees look like snow, the footprints and food marks of wild animals, the snow-covered Shiretoko mountain range, and the icefall of Furepe Falls. It is a course where you can fully enjoy walking in the winter forest, packed with the charm of winter!

I will walk around wearing snowshoes with a guide ☆ Thanks to snowshoes, walking in the forest in winter is comfortable! We will also take a walk in the forest, which is closed in summer. Look for traces of wild animals!

Watch out for small sounds! When you are walking in the forest, you may hear a very small "clap" sound. Small creatures such as Ezo flying squirrels and squirrels may be eating around it.
