Sobre este local: Shiretoko
A península de Shiretoko, Patrimônio Natural Mundial, avança no mar de Okhotsk. Florestas primárias com ursos pardos e corujas-pescadoras, gelo flutuante invernal e as cachoeiras Kamuiwakka veranis. Falésias visíveis apenas de barcos turísticos.
Destaques
- Shiretoko Five Lakes — five lakes ringed by primeval forest; raised boardwalks let you walk safely above bear country, with the Shiretoko range reflected in calm water
- Sea of Okhotsk drift ice — late January to early March, the most southerly drift-ice zone in the world; «drift-ice walks» let you stand on it
- Kamuiwakka Falls — a rare waterfall fed by hot springs; in summer, hike upstream to the fourth fall
- Cape Puyuni and Yuhi-dai — five minutes by car from Utoro; sunset over the Sea of Okhotsk silhouettes the cape
- Sightseeing boats — from Utoro Port to Cape Shiretoko, viewing cliffs, waterfalls, and brown bears on a 3.5-hour cruise
