Sorry that this has taken so long.I have managed to get some more information. A local guide reported that the best time for Autumn foliage is from late October for a month. However, given that there are a lot of conifers and evergreens, the hillsides are not covered in colour as would be the case in the Kyoto region, for instance, but will be more patchy. However, from what I have seen in the early Spring, there will be some areas with wonderful colour.

I believe you have already been there. I absolutely don’t recommend a tour. The tour costs 5000¥ as far as I read here on TripAdvisor. The entrance fee in August 2018 costs 260¥ pP. The 3km can be easily done in 45-60 min. I can not imagine what would be so interesting to learn about this pretty but plain area in 3h. That sounds wayyyyy to long. Spare the money. Do the 3km upon arrival, don‘t let them scare you about bears. It is far to loud for any bear. Too many people.

You cannot take the tour without the guide.

You will be able to go around the Shiretoko Five Lakes yourself however, transportation is a main issue. There are no direct public buses that go there so this is where the tour guides are helpful. However, if you have a driver's license that permits you to drive in Japan, rent a car and drive yourself there.

please contact Kohki Suganuma I joined his tour in Feb 2016. it was fantastic and this is a must to walk on the 5 lakes if you go to Shiretoko during winter! I enjoyed the tour guided by Kohki very much. Kohki is just so funny and knowledgeable.
