Everything you need is free to rent, so you can come empty-handed! This canoe tour is perfect for anything you want. Lake Poroto is a place where people have lived together as part of nature since ancient times. Although it is a small lake with a circumference of about 4 kilometers, it is a very rich lake packed with waterside nature such as forests, marshes, sand, swamps, and rivers. Take a leisurely canoe ride around Lake Poroto while listening to all about its nature, culture, and history! This is the plan. Lake Poroto is rich in nutrients brought from the mountains, and is home to many birds, fish, and animals, or where they visit in search of food. The scenery also changes drastically with each season, with skunk cabbage in spring, water lilies in summer, autumn leaves, and snow-covered snow in winter, so visitors never get bored. For those who want to leave the navigation to the guide and enjoy the lake at their own pace, we have not only Canadian canoes, but also air canoes with double paddles for those who want to paddle themselves!
