    Shari (斜里町) is a town on the northern coast of Hokkaido, Japan.

    Understand

    [edit]

    Shari is east of Abashiri and west of Shiretoko National Park. In fact, the village of Utoro, a part of this area, is one of the two gateways to the national park.

    • 1 Utoro & Shirietokku Michi no Eki (Roadside rest area) (斜里町道の駅うとろ・シリエトク), Utoro Nishi 186-8, Shari (on Highway 334 in central Utoro, a few hundred meters SW of the major hotels), +81 152 22-5000. This rest area has a gift shop, visitor desk with maps and information, and large parking lot. If you're headed into Shiretoko National Park, it would be better to go to the park visitor center, but if you're wandering through Utoro, this is a good starting point.
    • 2 Michi no Eki Shari (道の駅しゃり), 本町37 (1 block NE of JR Shiretokoshari Station.), +81 152 26-8888. Information daily 09:00-19:00, restrooms 24 hr. This small rest area is located in downtown Shari. Though quiet in the evening, it is a useful information stop during the day. Roadside station Shari (Q11640776) on Wikidata

    Tourist information site

    [edit]

    The local tourist association has a Japanese-only guide site.

    Get in

    [edit]

    Shari can be reached by car, bus, or train. That being said, having a car once you're in Shari is highly desirable, so renting one in Abashiri is a reasonable idea.

    Get around

    [edit]

    Traveling by car is recommended. It is also not uncommon to see bicyclists and motorcyclists.
