| Shiretoko National Park covers most of the Shiretoko Peninsula at the northeastern tip of the island of Hokkaidō, Japan. Shiretoko is best known as the home of Japan's largest population of brown bears, and for offering views of Kunashiri Island, ownership of which Japan and Russia dispute. | |
| Shiretoko is one of Japan’s most pristine national parks. Its wild expanses are home to 36 land and 22 marine mammal species as well as 285 bird species, including brown bears, Blakiston’s fish owls and orcas. The peninsula’s volcanic landscapes cover ocean, river and forest ecosystems that vary dramatically between seasons. You’ll have chances to hike through meadows dotted with alpine flowers, walk on drift ice, snowshoe through frozen forests, and cycle along winding mountain roads. | |
