Cape Peshi
ペシ岬
A cape about 93 meters high beside Oshidomari Port. From the summit viewpoint you can see both the ferry terminal and Mount Rishiri, making it the first stop on the island.
Cape Peshi sits beside Oshidomari Port, the gateway to Rishiri Island. It is a lava hill jutting out over the sea, and 'Peshi' means 'cliff' in Ainu. A roughly 20-minute walk from the ferry terminal leads to the summit viewpoint, which overlooks Oshidomari Port, the lighthouse, and the island's coastline. Behind it stands the full view of Mount Rishiri, and on clear days you can see Rebun Island. There is a campground at the foot of the hill. Free admission; a good place to visit while waiting for a ferry or right after arriving on the island.
