The Shiretoko Nature Center serves as the gateway to Shiretoko National Park, situated at the junction leading to Shiretoko Goko Lakes and Shiretoko Pass. This center provides comprehensive information about the Shiretoko region. One of its highlights is a large Dynavision screen, towering 12 meters high and spanning 20 meters wide. This screen dynamically showcases the beauty of White-tailed Sea-Eagles soaring over steep cliffs, aerial views from Mt. Rausu summit to Cape Shiretoko, the arrival of drift ice, and other seasonal scenes from Shiretoko.
In addition to its multimedia displays, the center features a souvenir shop and a restaurant, making it a convenient stop for visitors. The Shiretoko Nature Center serves as the primary base camp for exploring the rich natural wonders of Shiretoko.
