1 day Mt. Rausu trekking in Shiretoko, Hokkaido
Discover the wild beauty of the Shiretoko Peninsula in this 1-day trekking to Mount Rausu, together with a JMGA mountain guide.
Shiretoko range
1 Day
Jun - Aug
Description
I invite you to a beautiful trekking in the highest mountain of the Shiretoko peninsula, in eastern Hokkaido.
Mount Rausu (1660 m) is the highest point on the peninsula of Shiretoko. Lying inside a wonderful and unspoiled National Park, this place is ideal for seeing how the habitat changes from a forest to a Dwarf Siberian pine (Pinus pumila) area and then a flower blossom field.
There’s not much altitude difference here, but we will see a large diversity of ecosystems. Besides, it is possible to see some islands that both Japan and Russia claim as their own territories.
For those who love trekking and wild nature, this tour will be a great opportunity to enjoy the Shiretoko Area in the summer time. So please contact me if you want to join me for this 1-day traverse!
