Despite being a beginner-friendly course, this activity leads you to the absolutely stunning scenery at the end. During winter, you can see frozen waterfalls from above, and if you shift your gaze toward the sea, you will be met with the vast and majestic Sea of Okhotsk. From February to March, you will also get the chance to see the sea covered with drift ice. If you are lucky, you could even encounter wild animals like deer along the way.

What to expect

Shiretoko's famous Furepe Fall turns into blue icicles in winter, and the spray from the falls, blown by the north wind, creates mysterious shapes. The silvery white Shiretoko mountain range rises behind Furepe Fall, and during the drift ice season, a magnificent drift ice field spreads out below.
