Shiretoko & Lakes in East Hokkaido

Enjoy the earliest autumn of Japan in Hokkaido

At the end of September two years ago, I visited Shiretoko Peninsula, a World Heritage Site in Japan.

I had made a reservation for the Shiretoko Cruise beforehand, but unfortunately the sea was rough and the cruise was canceled. To top it all off, brown bears were spotted in the area and I could only see two of the five famous lakes in Shiretoko.

However, as a 'die hard' photographer, I didn't give up easily. I changed my plans on the spot and explored the lakes in Eastern Hokkaido instead.
