At Hidaka area, where HOA is based, we are doing Rafting in Sarugawa and Mukawa. The Saru River, which originates from the Hidaka Mountains, runs just behind the HOA and has been selected as the clearest river in Japan. And Hokkaido Mukawa is said to be one of the torrents. It's thrilling no matter how many times you go down the course where there is a large drop and a tricky rapid. Both are popular rivers for repeaters. The normal Rafting boat has a capacity of 6-7 people, but this mini raft is a mini size that 2-3 people can ride! It looks cute like a colon, but be careful on the river. The instability is indescribable, and it is a good skill to shake off passengers here and there. The number of boats and the number of passengers are limited, so it is recommended for those who participate with a small number of Number of participants and those who want to swim! ------------------------------------- At HOA, as a measure to prevent new coronavirus infectious diseases, we will carry out a tour while making the following efforts.
