Bushcraft in Shiraoi

Wild Hokkaido! • Season 6 • Episode 1

About this episode

Bushcraft is a way to enjoy nature by utilizing what is sourced from nature and exercising the "wisdom of living with the forest." In this episode, a French fishing guide will try his hand at bushcraft in Shiraoi Town, Hokkaido Prefecture, facing the Pacific Ocean. The goal is to build a campfire using fallen trees and withered branches in the forest, and to have a delicious dinner with the fish he catches. Snow has already started to fall in the winter forest. Without using the latest camping gear, how can we make the most of the forest's bounty with his wisdom and ingenuity to stay comfortable?
