Rausu Area

Geyser Walking Course

Distance : About 100 m (round trip) / Time required : About 10 min.

Trail Overview

A geyser is located just a 5-minute walk from the rear of the Shiretoko Rausu Visitor Center.
Spouting up to 8 m in the air, it’s a sight to see. Please check at the visitor center for the estimated times of geyser eruptions.
The walk out to the geyser is short, but even so you may encounter wildlife like great spotted woodpeckers and deer along the way. In winter when the snow has accumulated, there’s a snowshoeing trail from the geyser to the Rausu Onsen Campsite, allowing you to trek through the snowy landscape.
