- Departing from Sapporo Station! This is a light hiking tour to observe the salmon run in the Uyoro River, which flows through Shiraoi Town. Every year from September to November, salmon swim up the river to spawn. The Uyoro River is a hidden gem where you can observe the salmon run up close. During the peak season, the river is literally filled with salmon! It is a sight to behold. The walking trail along the Uyoro River is generally gentle and easy to walk. If the timing is right, you might even encounter white-tailed eagles hunting for salmon. A professional guide will provide lectures on key spots and explain the nature of the area. The total itinerary is about 3 hours. Even those who are not confident in their physical fitness can participate. After the walk, you can also stop by a hot spring. This tour is recommended for those who want to relax and walk through the great outdoors.
