Itinerary
Experienced guides will guide you. Even beginners can participate. The tour will be adjusted according to the level of the participants. During the hiking on snow with snowshoes and poles, you may see rare animals such as sea cormorants, seagulls, Steller's sea eagles, Ezo deer, and seals. You can see or visit Shimamui Coast, Demisaki Observatory, Demisaki Lighthouse, Kasadomari Observatory and Jyorokkoiwa Observatory Deck.
A series of cliffs and oddly shaped rocks are interesting one after another, and columnar joints (regular pillar-like cracks caused by lava that has flowed from the volcano and hardened as it cooled slowly) can be observed on the cliffs that rise up from the sea.
