Salmon Watching Tour

In autumn, salmon and trout come back to the rivers where they were born after spending years traversing the oceans of the northern hemisphere.
While walking and watching the fish as they swim upstream and sacrifice their lives to spawn, we will introduce you to the important roles they play in the natural world of Shiretoko.
