Shiretoko-Shari

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Shiretoko-Shari Station opened on 10 November 1925 as Shari Station, a general station on what is now the Senmō Main Line. A fire destroyed the original station building in 1937. It served as the junction for the Konpoku Line from 10 November 1957 until that line's closure on 1 December 1970. Operation passed to JR Hokkaido at the 1 April 1987 privatisation; freight and parcels had ended on 1 February 1984. After a 1997 campaign by local tourism interests, the station was renamed Shiretoko-Shari on 11 April 1998, with the community covering the costs. In December 2007 the building was enlarged and integrated with the town's tourist centre, designed by Hiroshi Kawahito and finished inside and out in laminated karamatsu (Japanese larch).

The station building was used as a filming location for the 1987 Otoko wa Tsurai yo film Shiretoko Bojō.
