✨When rafting, the distance you go down, how you play, and the scenery change depending on the season!

◆Spring high water season (end of April to end of June) It was during this period that the Asia-Oceania regional qualifying round for the World Rafting Race was held. When the snow melts, the Tone River becomes a world-class torrent. The big waves and the sense of speed get your adrenaline pumping. However, the water from melting snow is cold. At Jag Sports, we use equipment designed for comfort, including custom-made 5mm wetsuit jackets. We also provided free hot shower facilities after the tour. ◆Exhilarating Summer Rafting (July to October) Usually, in summer, the water level is calm and rafting takes place on the Suwa Gorge course. The boat ride takes approximately 70 minutes and descends 4 kilometers. At this time of year, Suwa Gorge is full of fun spots other than torrents, such as natural waiter slides, river surfing, and 8m jump rocks. This is also the time when many people take part in rafting tours.

✨Trust and track record

Our company, located in Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture, is an outfitter with a history of 25 years. We plan and implement seasonal outdoor and adventure tours such as rafting, canyoning, and snowshoeing. We always strive to increase customer satisfaction and have received many positive reviews and reviews. [Review] ``At the end of April, my husband and I went on a rafting experience for the first time. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery of cherry blossoms, fresh greenery, and the hot spring town, experienced water play from getting used to the water to diving in (although the two of us couldn't swim, we were able to do it without any worries with the kind support!), and we also took many different versions of photos at each spot. I was happy to receive the data immediately after the experience! It was still a chilly experience in April, but we had a warm shower and hairdryer after the experience, which was very helpful! The best thing of all was the warmth of the staff. They carefully explained everything from safety to scenery, and the stories were interesting, so we had a great time from start to finish! Thank you for the really enjoyable time! It was a very satisfying experience♪''

✨Greetings from the representative

Nice to meet you, I'm Atsushi Kano, owner guide. More than 20 years ago, I was a member of my university's exploration club and was thinking of starting an outdoor guide company in the future. During my university years, I traveled around Japan in mountains, streams, rivers, snow, and caves, setting up tents in various places and holding training camps. After graduating, I got a job at an outdoor guide company and honed my skills as a mountain and river professional. When I decided to become independent and thought about where to base my business, I decided on Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture based on my experience of traveling throughout Japan. The charm of this town is definitely its nature. The outdoor possibilities in this town are second to none. This is because there are hot springs, and you can enjoy high-quality activities throughout the year that match the four seasons. Moreover, it is very convenient to access from Tokyo. Even now, I am glad that I chose Minakami Town. Minakami Town is the best place to enjoy nature and outdoor life. Why not take this opportunity to experience the great nature of Minakami, soak in the hot springs, and refresh your mind and body!
