Shiretoko National Park

Public transport to Shiretoko is extremely limited. The nearest train station is at Shari, from where you can catch infrequent buses 3 per day in peak season through Utoro to the western coast of the peninsula. On the eastern side is the small town of Rausu, reachable by bus from Kushiro 3.5 hours and in summer only two daily buses from Utoro as well.
