Japan Travel: A guide to Shiretoko National Park | Rural Hokkaido |

Shiretoko National Park is a UNESCO World Hertiage Site. Located on the northeast tip of Hokkaido, this rural corner of Japan offers plenty of outdoor activities.

We start in Utoro, the town which borders the park.
I purchased the Shiretoko Excursion Ticket (1-Day) for all the bus transportation.

Located about 50 km from the nearest train station and over 100 km from an airport, a little bit more planning needs to be done to visit this part of Japan. In addition to sharing the park, I explain how I managed to do this trip.

During the summer months, the weather is fantastic (and a nice relief from the extreme heat and humidity of Tokyo).

About once a year I enjoy doing a video about Hokkaido. This is a wonderful corner to check out if you have the time and are looking for something different.

There is much to say. It is a very nice and relaxing video, the national park looks very nice, it is good that there is a bus with good frequency to visit and tour the park, in addition to the fact that the view of the town and the viewpoint of the rock is wonderful. Thank you very much Andrew, it was a nice walk. Many greetings from Chile!

Thank you for the lovely and very clear explanation of the main sights! Very useful resource on this less visited part of Hokkaido 😊

[BagsPackedFamily]

Hokkaido looks so beautiful! We definitely will want to visit the Shiretoko National Park! The boardwalk looks amazing I love that green grass, and, yes, it totally looks like the Window wallpaper 😆. Those kayakers must be having a blast!

Hi bro, that rock place 11:30 was really nice! For a moment it felt like I'm watching some nature documentary with all the sea gull noise in the background. I stumbled upon your channel searching for Hokkaido train travel videos, found them very informational. Subbed!

Going there tomorrow! Thank you for the video!

lol it was a randomized windows 10 screen saver that showed the image you said looked like windows xp, it has the "like what you see" link and it basically took me to your video

Thank you for this informative video. What month were you there? We are thinking to travel in November.

Asesome video. You could have added some pokemon refrences. The Sinnoh region is based on Hokkaido and the newest game talks about the Ainu people of ancient Sinnoh.

Do you know what happened in Shiretoko like few days ago…

[cheekyvonne]

how much it cost you for the one day pass? those the pass has a very strict ite? like a day tour? or it’s like an unlimited kind of ride?

[meiyang]

Do you have to wear a mask? It seems silly to wear a mask outdoor? The one you are wearing is just a paper mask, not N95. So I wonder what good it does?? Thanks for the video!

Hey are these places open during winter as well?

[theayong]
