This video covers day 23 through 26 of our Tokyo to Hokkaido road trip. On day 23, we explore the walking trails and breathtaking views of Shiretoko, seeing plenty of wildlife throughout the day. The next day marked our last day in the national park, as we took a cruise up to Cape Shiretoko. After making a pit stop at Oshinkoshin Falls, we recuperated at an onsen in Teshikaga, heading to Kushiro right after as the day concluded. Day 25 was spent exploring Japan’s largest marshland in Kushiro, eating delicious curry and traveling to Tomakomai. In the wee hours of the night, we boarded a ferry to take us back to Honshu, having breakfast the next day in Hachinohe. From there, we headed southwest for Lake Towada, where we’d be staying the next couple of days.
Follow along the journey in the last few days of the month-long trip, as we explore the many waterfalls of Oirase Gorge. Thanks again for watching 🙂
