This trekking tour covers all of the Shiretoko Five Lakes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a special protected area of Shiretoko National Park, including the elevated boardwalk. This is the first groundbreaking forest adventure experience in Japan, where licensed guides guide you through areas where brown bears live. You can observe not only the lakes, but also the seasonal changes in nature, such as Ezo deer, Ezo red foxes, wild birds, alpine plants, and autumn leaves. Since the animals are not fed, all the creatures you encounter are real wild animals. Roads and trails may be closed due to brown bears, snowfall, storms, etc. If we know of a closure in advance, we will contact you by mobile device and offer you cancellation (free of charge) or alternative courses (same price), or alternative dates and times, if you wish.

This is a limited-time tour only available in autumn. You can observe the creatures in the river where Okhotsk salmon and autumn salmon naturally spawn. You can see salmon, of course, but also other creatures such as creatures that target fish and birds that steal eggs. Sometimes you can observe them close enough to take photos with your smartphone. The guide will prepare a filter that allows you to take beautiful photos of the fish without shining the river surface. On the morning of the day of fishing, you can also observe the fish being landed at the "Utoro Salmon Terrace". Please choose a tour at 7 or 8 o'clock on a weekday. (Fishing is suspended on Sundays and in bad weather.) The salmon return situation changes depending on natural conditions. If there are no salmon nearby, you will move by car, so we recommend that you participate by rental car. In the event of bad weather, we will contact you to cancel (or postpone if you wish).
