Starting at Kinoshita Hut by Iwaobetsu Onsen in Shiretoko, this return climbs the 1,661 m Mount Rausu, the highest peak of the Shiretoko range. The trail rises through deep oak and Sakhalin fir forest past the Okhotsk viewpoint, Yasakichi Spring and the snow-filled Osawa valley to Rausudaira, then scrambles over rock among creeping pine and alpine flowers to the summit.
