Walk about 2 km over 3 hours for a leisurely snowshoe tour
Might encounter wildlife like Ezo deer and red foxes!
What to expect
Head through the forest towards Furepe Falls, searching for wildlife and their traces. Thanks to the snow and snowshoes, areas difficult to access from spring to autumn become walkable, offering new discoveries.

I thought that snowshoeing for 2 km might be a bit tough, but it turned out to be a good amount of exercise. The view of the Furepe Waterfall and the Shiretoko Mountain Range was stunning. I also got to see a family of Ezo deer, and I enjoyed spotting footprints in the snow that I believe belonged to foxes and rabbits, allowing me to fully enjoy nature.スノーシューで２ｋｍは少しきついかと思いましたが適度な運動になりました。フレペの滝や知床連山がきれいに見えて景色は最高でした。 また、エゾシカの家族も見ることができたり、キツネやウサギと考えられる雪についた足跡も見られて自然を満喫することができました。

The snowshoe tour at Furepe Falls was supposed to take place, but due to a lack of snow, it was changed to trekking with rubber boots. The route was altered to a slightly more rugged path, extending the distance, but I was guided to two breathtaking viewpoints and even encountered a Siberian jay and a Ezo deer, which was great. Along the way, there were old bear hibernation holes and claw marks from climbing, as well as deer skulls, which made it enjoyable. Although there were some slippery spot… The snowshoe tour at Furepe Falls was supposed to take place, but due to a lack of snow, it was changed to trekking with rubber boots.

Along the way, there were old bear hibernation holes and claw marks from climbing, as well as deer skulls, which made it enjoyable. Although there were some slippery spots due to melting snow, there were no injuries, and it was a great success. フレペの滝スノーシューツアーの筈が雪が積もらず、長靴でのトレッキングに変更。 道が少し険しいルートに変更され距離延長となりましたが、2ヶ所の絶景ポイントにガイドしてもらった上にシマエナガや蝦夷鹿にも出会えたので良かったです。 途中、古いヒグマの冬眠穴や木登りの爪跡があったり、鹿の頭骸骨などもあり楽しかったです。雪が溶けてぬかるんでいたので滑る場所もあったのですが怪我も無く大成功でした。

I love Shiretoko so much that this is my third visit in six months. Each time, I participate in activities with Picchio.
This time, I had my first snowshoeing experience. Our guide, Minami-chan, taught us patiently and led us while considering each participant's pace. It was quite challenging in the deep snow, but there was a unique joy that comes with a first-time experience.

Lying down in the snow, encountering Ezo deer up close, and seeing the breathtaking view of the frozen Furepe Falls and the drift ice of the Okhotsk Sea were truly spectacular. Above all, the air in Shiretoko is delicious!
There was also thoughtful support from Keke, who took photos for us, making this another truly valuable experience. 知床が好きすぎて、半年で3回目の来訪。毎回ピッキオさんのアクティビティに参加しています。 今回は初スノーシュー体験。ガイドのみなみちゃんが丁寧に教えてくれて、参加者それぞれのペースを考慮しながら先導してくれました。深雪の中でなかなかハードでしたが、初体験ならではの楽しさがありました。
The day before my trip, I was looking for activities that were available, and I decided on a whim to come here without any prior information, only to be surprised by the breathtaking view!旅行の前日に空いてる、アクビティはないかなと探してたら、何のキなしに決めたので、事前情報なしに来たら、まさかの絶景！を観られるとは。
