Sahoro Resort Bear Mountain
A thrilling encounter with Ezo brown bears-just 4 meters away
Experience the raw power and natural beauty of Hokkaido’s iconic Ezo brown bears at Sahoro Resort Bear Mountain. Located in the lush Karikachi Plateau, this facility offers safe, close-up views of bears living in their forest habitat.
Step onto the elevated walkway, 5 meters high and 370 meters long, winding through the forest. From this unique vantage point, watch Ezo brown bears roam among the trees, dig in the earth, and splash in the water. In the forest’s serene stillness, the sound of heavy footsteps or a low growl brings their presence to life. For a guided experience, the Bear Watching Bus offers a secure way to travel through the forest, keeping you comfortable and dry even on rainy days.
At the center of the park, “Bear Point” is a glass-enclosed observation area where you can come face-to-face with bears just 4 meters away. Their thick fur, sharp claws, and powerful movements are breathtaking at such close range. Surrounded by the earthy scent of the forest and fresh greenery, this encounter offers a memorable connection with Hokkaido’s iconic wilderness.
