What is a packraft? Originally conceived as a portable travel (exploration) tool in Alaska, it was developed to enable travelers to navigate through all kinds of wilderness, including mountains, rivers, oceans, and valleys. A "packable" raft is an inflatable boat that's small enough to fit in a backpack and easily inflated for paddle cruising or downriver paddling anywhere on lakes and rivers. This is recommended for beginners to paddle sports, as well as those new to packrafting. This tour is also recommended for those who only have half a day to spare due to other commitments. We'll support your first packrafting experience with detailed instructions on paddling, tips, and safety. Once you've mastered paddling, you can even try paddling on a smaller current! Tour Overview: This is a half-day packrafting tour. Recommended for beginners and those looking for a quick packrafting experience! Start with a lesson on how to paddle, and once you get used to it, try paddling freely to various places ♪ If you're lucky, you might even get to see a steam locomotive passing by up close!

A "packraft" is an inflatable boat that can be easily packed into a backpack and easily inflated for paddle cruising or downriver riding on lakes and rivers. Tour Overview: At 1,269 meters above sea level, Lake Chuzenji in Nikko National Park is the highest lake in Japan. Pack your packraft in your backpack and head out for a trek! Trek through the pristine, quiet forest, untouched by traffic and open only to foot traffic. Experience the history and natural beauty of Lake Chuzenji, including the former British and French Embassy Villa and a deep beech forest, as you make your way along the lakeshore toward the beach. Once you arrive at the deserted beach, take in the stunning views of Lake Chuzenji and Mount Nantai towering across the shore, then sit back and relax on the sand. "Is this Japan?" The climax comes when you inflate your own packraft and set off from the beach in the clear waters where fish swim, onto Lake Chuzenji, where you can enjoy the spectacular mountain and lake views created by Nikko's natural beauty as you paddle. This tour is limited to one group per day and offers a full experience of Lake Chuzenji, Japan's highest lake, through trekking and cruising. <Tour Schedule> 9:00 Meet at One Plate - 9:15 Meet at Tobu Nikko Station - 10:00 Meet at Utagahama Daiichi Parking Lot - 10:30 Start trekking - 11:30 Lunch break on the beach - 12:30 Start packrafting - 14:00 Arrive at Utagahama Parking Lot - Disband Utagahama around 14:30 - Disband Tobu Nikko Station and One Plate around 15:30 *Route and time may change depending on wind direction, weather, etc.
