Tour Highlights

  • Enjoy two thrilling rafting trips in the upstream of the wide Tokachi River
  • Choose places with fast currents and rough waves!!

Ride the raft twice down the 2.5km course in the Iwamatsu area, located in the upper reaches of the Tokachi River, which boasts the second largest watershed in Hokkaido.

Thanks to the dam upstream, this area has abundant water throughout the season! This is recommended for those looking for rafting in thrilling conditions. With 7-9 crew members on each boat, you will work together to row down the difficult sections that appear one after another, and the sense of unity you feel as you fight against the rapids with strangers will spark conversation!

There’s no doubt that the second time will be an even more thrilling and fun river ride once you have the experience of the first time!

  • Ages 7 and older welcome

  • It's the best after all

    I participated with my best friend. It was a little cold, but the scenery and the guide were amazing! I want to go again next year! (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was great!

    I went with my boyfriend on our two and a half year anniversary! It was his first time rafting, and I had only done it once before. It was my first time on the Tokachi River. It was early September, the river was gentle, and the weather was clear and it was the best! The guide's jokes were also funny, and we were laughing the whole time (^^) Even though it was the same river, the first and second times were completely different and fun! We tried surfing, and intentionally fell into the river and drifted away...we got soaked until we were completely soaked, and it was so much fun! It happened to be just the two of us, so we had the place to ourselves with the two guides, which was also really fun! I'm glad I bought the photo data too! I'd definitely like to go again! (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was fun!!

    We participated as a couple, my son in junior high school, and my daughter in elementary school. The guide was very friendly and easy to talk to, and told us all kinds of stories about rafting, which we enjoyed! The children were delighted with the thrilling experience of jumping into the rapids and rivers! There are many wonderful guides. I was happy that they waved goodbye to our car until it was out of sight on the way back. We will definitely come again! (This review has been machine translated)

  • it was fun~

    It was my family's first time rafting. The weather was good and we had a lot of fun. The cheerful and energetic staff made it even more fun. My child wants to go again, so I would like to use your services again. (This review has been machine translated)
  • I want to go again

    My children and I participated. They helped my son, who is easily scared, get used to it little by little. I'd like to go again! (This review has been machine translated)
  • A life-changing moment!

    Today was the first time for my family of four to go rafting! It was so much fun! If I had done it a little earlier, I might have aimed to become an instructor! I'll try again this year! Thank you to all the fun staff members! (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was fun! I recommend it!

    I participated with my middle school and high school sons! Dry suits are great because you hardly get wet even when playing in the river. But they are quite thick and steamy, so a wetsuit is recommended on hot days. Oh, and be careful, some people who swam seriously in dry suits got wet. The river boating was great, but the free time afterwards was also a lot of fun! My sons were also very happy to have had such a great experience! The river boating has long sections with gentle currents, so it's very relaxing. I think you'll need to do it twice to feel satisfied. Thank you so much to our handsome and cute guides!

  • Family bonding activities

    My husband and I, our two daughters in junior high and high school, and my parents-in-law participated in a family rafting trip. We were a little worried about the seniors, who were almost 70 years old, but thanks to the reliable instructor, we were able to enjoy a safe and exciting rafting trip. We would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much to Mr. Takahashi for your help. (This review has been machine translated)
  • My childhood memories in Hokkaido

    When we woke up in the morning, it was raining and our spirits were down a little, and we worried that the trip might be cancelled, but those worries were quickly blown away. The kids were scared at first, but by the end, they were soaking wet and had big smiles on their faces!! But my wife was enjoying it even more!! They had fun despite the low water temperature and the rain!!! At the end, we all came together and said, "Let's do it again!" (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was super fun ^^

    Thank you for your hospitality on September 12th. We had a wonderful time. The second event in particular was thrilling and exciting for the whole family. We hope to visit again next time, so we look forward to seeing you again then. (This review has been machine translated)
