Seigakuso hut is located here, at the main Shari-dake hiking trailhead in eastern Hokkaido.
The old Seigakuso Hut used to stand about 1km further up into the forest. It burned down, so it was replaced with the current hut in 2004. Along with the new hut came a massive new parking area, clean public toilets, and a park-like area at the trailhead.

Overnight stays do not need to be booked in advance, but in the busy mid-August period (10th till 20th August), it would pay to book in advance just to be sure that you have a spot to sleep. Call the Kiyosato Tourism Association to book (TEL: 0152-25-4111).
Hut fees are 2,120yen for adults (high school age and older), 1,040yen for elementary- and middle-school children, and it’s 520yen to sleep in your car in the carpark overnight.
