About 20 minutes by car from "Yufuin Onsen" and "Beppu Onsen". Water activities performed in the unexplored "Yufugawa Gorge" introduced on TV "Itte Q" ♪ Adventure the secret spots of Yufugawa Gorge that can only be reached by packraft! The mysterious scenery woven by untouched nature is like the world of Studio Ghibli. A “packraft”, which is still rare in Japan, is a lightweight boat that originated in Alaska. Developed for traveling across vast lands, it was named "Packraft" because it can be folded compactly and carried in a backpack. The packraft is very light, around 3kg. Women and small people can easily carry and move. By using this packraft, you can explore the hinterland of "Yufugawa Gorge" that could not be entered until now. Ride a packraft in places with a lot of water, and move with a packraft in rocky areas ♪ It will be a considerable amount of exercise! This is a tour limited to those who are exercising on a regular basis! It's hard, that's why you can see the precious scenery that no one can see. Recommended for those who want to be healed by silence and light among steep rocks, waterfalls, and moss-covered greenery! ! After exploring the canyon, enjoy a healthy snack full of vegetables made by a group of local mothers! ! From the place where the vegetables are grown, to the place where the bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and edible wild plants are picked, everything is handmade. A free hot spring ticket for Hasama Onsenkyo is also included ♪ Free rental equipment is [pack raft, paddle, wet pants, life jacket, helmet, water shoes, gloves]. One free drink during the tour. ^^If you join this tour, you can enjoy the deep scenery, food, and hot springs of Yufu♪♪♪
Free rental equipment (pack craft, paddle, wet pants, life jacket, helmet, water shoes, gloves), healthy snacks and tea with plenty of vegetables, 1 drink, insurance premium, free hot spring ticket for Hama Onsenkyo, all all-inclusive !! There is no additional charge on the day! !!
Handmade by the mother group [Hoba no Kai] in the Honoki district of Hasamamachi, Yufu City, with light meals ♪ From the place where vegetables are made, from the place where bamboo shoots, edible wild plants, and ginkgo are collected, and from the place where rice is made! Plenty of vegetables, healthy light meal! Please enjoy the taste of mothers in the area, which is very popular every time.

Access - Map
Park Tree Elementary School Auditorium (commonly known as Park Tree Base) ★ Caution ★ After gathering at Park Tree Elementary School (commonly known as Park Tree Base), after completing the reception procedure and changing clothes, move to the Yufugawa Gorge entrance by your own car Please. The guide will lead you by car, but since we carry luggage (pack craft), you will be asked to move by your car. ★★ Please be careful if you come by taxi ★★ Especially if you come by taxi, please tell the driver in advance that you will move to the canyon after getting off at Honoki Elementary School and wait. Please tell me. Also, if you come by taxi on your way back, you need to pick up at the Yufugawa Gorge, but the place to enter by Packraft is different from the Shinsaru Watari entrance where tourists can get off on foot. , There are no landmarks, and it is a very confusing place that is not displayed on maps such as Google map. I think it is better to have the same driver on the way back and the driver on the way back. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the tour, which is held in an unexplored area. Thank you for your understanding.
