A full-day torrent rafting experience in the upper reaches of the Tone River in Minakami Town. Since the guide will guide you, even beginners can experience it with confidence
The Tone River, which runs through Minakami Town in Gunma Prefecture, is a mecca for rafting tours. Especially during the flood season due to the thaw in spring, it is one of the leading torrent spots in Japan and one of the best in the world. Starting from the former Minakami Town upstream of the Tone River, the goal is to reach the vicinity of the boundary between Numata City and Showa Village downstream, and depending on the conditions such as the amount of water, you can enjoy a long tour of 25 km over a day.
Our tour is designed to be enjoyable by anyone who is healthy. If you have any request, please consult the guide in charge.
We have all the wetsuits, safety life jackets and helmets you need for your tour! Please bring a towel and a swimsuit!
