OnlinePeer into a research forest run by the Tokyo University of Agriculture, where towering Japanese cedars rise from a leaf-littered ridge crossed by gnarled roots.

About This Webcam
Everything you need to know about this live stream
A University Research Forest
This camera streams from the Okutama experimental forest, a teaching and research woodland operated by the Tokyo University of Agriculture. Set on a forested ridge in the mountainous west of Tokyo, the site lets students and scientists study a working temperate forest ecosystem while sharing the view with a worldwide audience.
Watching for Wildlife
The feed is a dedicated animal observation camera, trained on a clearing where deer, foxes, raccoon dogs and other mammals are known to pass. An infrared light source keeps the scene visible around the clock, so patient viewers can catch the forest's residents going about their lives undisturbed.
Japanese Cedar Woodland
Tall Japanese cedar (sugi) trunks dominate the frame, their bases wrapped in moss and exposed roots above a thick carpet of fallen needles and leaves. The steep, layered terrain is typical of the Okutama highlands, part of the Chichibu-Tama-Kai National Park region.
The Okutama Mountains
Okutama lies in the far west of Tokyo Metropolis, a rugged district of deep valleys, reservoirs and hiking trails that contrasts sharply with the city's famous skyline. The webcam offers a window onto this wild, green corner of the prefecture and the quiet life of its forests.
