Kiritappu Trip:
On the weekend of Jan 12 - 13 of 2013 I was invited to visit small town call Kiritappu in Eastern Hokkaido on the coast.
This part of Hokkaido doesn't get much snow in winter but what it lacks in snow in makes up in charm, wildlife and nature .
The Kiritappu Wetlands is a area of marsh lands that is home to deer and many types of wild birds and flowers.
All year round you can visit there and can enjoy many actives such has guide nature walks, fishing, horse riding, mountain biking on the beach and in winter cross country skiing and there are some very good places to stay at like Pension Porch and Kiritappu Cape Campgrund . There many great look out points like Cape Kiritappu and visit to the Kiritappu Shitsugen Center is a must.
If you have a chance I strongly recommend you visit KIRITAPPU and you can enjoy one of Hokkaido,s magical places and I'm sure you will fall in love with the place as much as I did .
