About Rishiri Island

Rishiri-to is a small island off the north-west coast of Hokkaido made up of a single volcano called Rishiri-san (利尻山) which towers 1721 m (5,646 ft) over the surrounding sea. It can be seen from over 100 km (62 mi) away. The view of Rishiri-to from it is nothing short of spectacular. These islands belonged to the Ainu until the migration of the Japanese to Hokkaido. Heavy snow in winter. Summer is the best time to visit.
