Located on Japan’s northernmost island of Hokkaido, Shiretoko is where untouched nature meets breathtaking scenery. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a paradise for outdoor lovers — dramatic coastlines, waterfalls, and mountain passes await at every turn.
We started our journey at Shiretoko Pass, a stunning mountain route that offers panoramic views of the Shiretoko mountain range and the Sea of Okhotsk. The crisp air and ever-changing clouds made it feel like walking through a painting. Next, we stopped by Oshinkoshin Falls, one of the region’s most famous waterfalls — powerful, graceful, and surrounded by lush green forest.
The highlight of the trip was a coastal drive along the Sea of Okhotsk, where the endless horizon and cool sea breeze created the perfect backdrop for a peaceful escape. Whether you’re chasing waterfalls, mountain views, or quiet moments by the sea, Shiretoko is a reminder of Japan’s incredible natural beauty.
