Tour Highlights
- Even beginners can enjoy SUP on the course with little current on the Saru River.
- You can enjoy it at your own pace while feeling nature with your whole body in the beautiful valley, and it’s also good exercise!
In SUP, you stand on a long board like a surfboard and paddle while maintaining your balance. Since maintaining your balance can be quite difficult, HOA’s tours are set up so that even first-timers can enjoy themselves. With a course that runs along the Saru River with a gentle current, it’s okay if you fall off many times!
Enjoy the beautiful valley while experiencing this great activity. Maintaining your balance also strengthens your core, making it a good exercise.
