Shiretoko 360 Boreal Forest View
OnlineA navigable 360-degree 4K panorama set deep inside the boreal woodland of Shiretoko, one of Japan's last great untouched wildernesses and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Slender trunks of oak and birch rise from a leaf-strewn forest floor, and the freely rotating viewpoint lets you drift through the canopy in every direction. Run by the Shiretoko Foundation with the Ministry of the Environment, it offers a rare immersive window onto a protected primeval forest.

Everything you need to know about this live stream
A Living Boreal Forest
This camera looks out across the temperate boreal woodland of the Shiretoko Peninsula, where mixed broadleaf and conifer stands form one of the most intact forest ecosystems in East Asia. The dense understorey and tangle of trunks shelter an exceptional concentration of wildlife.
An Immersive 360-degree Window
Unlike a fixed view, this is a fully navigable 360-degree panorama in crisp 4K. Visitors can rotate and explore the surrounding forest freely, glancing up through the layered canopy or scanning the leaf litter below for movement.
UNESCO Protected Wilderness
Shiretoko is a UNESCO World Heritage site and national park, prized for the way its land and sea ecosystems meet. The feed is operated by the Shiretoko Foundation under permit from Japan's Ministry of the Environment, part of a long-running conservation effort.
What You Might See
The peninsula is home to brown bears, Yezo deer, foxes and a wealth of woodland birds. Watching the quiet, breathing forest rewards patience, offering a genuine sense of remote, primeval nature rarely accessible elsewhere.
