Next stop from Shiretoko: Lake Akan
In this lake the famous Marimo, moss balls, can be found. An my way to lake Akan, I passed by lake Mashu. Unfortunately cloud base was very low. So from the first sight seeing spot I could not see much but white clouds and on the second spot, the clouds also were comming down pretty quickly. But I could take at least a decent panorama:
Arrived at lake Akan I met with a local Tour guide, who took me on a nature walk to Lake Onneto. We saw lots of mushrooms and other stuff, which I will show in a separate chapter of the blog. Here a nice panorama of the lake. Later it started raining again but most of the walk was dry.
On the next day I first did a canoe tour on Lake Akan.
Afterwards I was taking the boat tour across lake Akan, that allows you to see the Marimos in a museum on an island in lake Akan. They have some of the in an aquarium on display and the have a camera which shows a spot in the lake, where they can be seen "live".
After the boat tour I took a walk to the mud pools, which are bubbling in a way that I prefer, not to fall in.
In the evening I visited a performance of Ainu dancers. Afterwards a ceremony was held.
On the next day, on my way to the Sonkyou gorge, I visited lake Onneto once again and made a little hike to a special waterfall. It has special conditions, so it is "producing" mangan
