Canoeing and kayaking are popular waterside activities. However, the threshold may be high to play alone suddenly. Also, it may be difficult for first-time players to assess the risks involved in playing in nature. This experience is a kind of boat called "inflatable kayak", and you can enjoy paddling calm rivers and flat lakes. The hull is inflatable with air, so it has excellent mobility, transportability, and storage. Inflating with air is also completed in about 5 minutes per boat with a pump that draws electricity from the cigarette lighter socket of the car. In this plan, you can enjoy an inflatable kayak experience in a private sense at "Tobetsu Owl Lake" in Tobetsu Town, a town next to Sapporo. Due to the COVID-19 environment, the number of boats per tour is limited, so it is especially recommended for families and small groups. Of course, we will give you a thorough lecture on how to maneuver the boat at the beginning, so please do not worry. However, the basics are all about paddling and learning, and you can get used to the basic movements in about 30 minutes, so you can enjoy paddling to your heart's content except for the minimum lecture. Enjoying the regenerated Ishikari River basin surrounded by nature, nature from the coast of the Sea of Japan, and dam lakes surrounded by dense forests is the best way to refresh yourself!! The chirping of birds such as this, and the movement of carp and crucian carps hiding in the roots of the reeds will surely arouse your interest. Depending on the season, you may also be able to see the white-tailed eagle, which is a natural monument. Why don't you take this opportunity to get familiar with water?
