The Experience
【HOKKAIDO】 Furepe Falls is a place filled with the charm of Shiretoko, such as the sea, mountains, and waterfalls of the Shiretoko Peninsula, and the abundance of wild animals that live there. Especially, walking in the early morning is highly likely to encounter wild animals, and it is recommended for those who want to experience the nature of Shiretoko in a short time.
You can often see deer and other animals in the meadows along the promenade, and the fact that you can observe wild animals up close is another secret to its popularity.
In addition, another reason for its popularity is the spectacular view from the viewing point of the waterfall. The sheer cliffs that symbolize the Shiretoko Peninsula, the blue Sea of Okhotsk, and the vast panorama of the Shiretoko mountain range are spectacular.
