Shirakawa(Guide)

Enjoy a relaxing time in Jozankei, Sapporo's inner sanctum. In summer you can enjoy the deep green valley and the refreshing breeze, and in autumn the entire valley is a famous spot for viewing autumn leaves. Looking up at the valley from the river surface is a spectacular sight that you can't usually see!

  • A calm river!

    My husband, daughter and I participated. It was my first time to know that such a wonderful place exists in Jozankei Onsen. The guide was very cheerful and reliable, and even when I asked questions, he explained the river in an easy-to-understand way with a smile. I would like to experience it again in a different season! (This review has been machine translated)
  • First canoeing

    My family (husband and wife and 22-year-old daughter) took a trip to Hokkaido to make some memories before I started working, and experienced some activities. The location was close to the road, easy to find, and the river was calm. It was really fun that the guide was a foreigner, and it felt like an extraordinary experience, like traveling abroad. He was a nice guy, and his jokes were fun, and he even took photos for me, showing great consideration for other small details. The explanations were thorough and thorough, so I, who am quite scared, was able to enjoy canoeing for the first time without worry. The scenery was beautiful, and I definitely recommend this. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Canoe & Hot Spring Pack

    We took advantage of the Hokkaido LOVE discount and went canoeing with my son. I went with my son who is in the lower grades of elementary school, and it was great to enjoy the autumn leaves as we slowly moved along in a canoe. You can participate in the canoeing with just regular clothes and a life jacket. Sandals or boots are available for free rental. (My son went in with his swimsuit and rash guard, and sandals he brought with him so he wouldn't get wet. I went with a windbreaker and sandals, and went to the riverbank and soaked just my feet in the hot spring.) They lend you a special bag for your valuables, so you don't have to worry. The river is relatively shallow and the current is gentle, so there's no need to worry. At the riverbank where we turned around, there was a hot spring gushing out, and the water was slightly warm, so my son swam and played. We put on goggles and dived, and there seemed to be a lot of fish about 7.8 cm long. The guide was kind and took photos at scenic spots. 60 minutes went by in the blink of an eye, but there were so many places I wanted to visit in Jozankei that I decided to continue enjoying the whole day afterwards. With the Lovewari coupon, I was able to enjoy North Safari and Exclamation Bakery almost for free, and finally went to the pool and hot springs at the View Hotel, which was included in the package. It was the best holiday ever. (This review has been machine translated)

  • Canoeing was great

    I was worried about participating alone, but the staff rode with me and supported me, and I was able to enjoy the beautiful autumn leaves. They also took lots of photos for me and responded to my requests, so it was a very satisfying tour. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was great!

    We participated as a family. Basically, a canoe is for three people, but since two of our children are in the lower grades of elementary school, they let us all ride in one canoe. We received a thorough lesson on how to paddle beforehand, and even after we got in and started to move forward, the guide continued to guide us while calling out to us, so we felt safe and had a lot of fun canoeing all the way to the end! I felt that safety management was solid. It was autumn, the weather was good, the water was clear, and the leaves were just starting to change color, so we really enjoyed it. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Recommended for beginners too!

    I participated with my child. We paddled leisurely, looked at the small waterfall, and were in the canoe for about 40 minutes. In summer, you can also splash around in the water. It's an easy course even for beginners, so I recommend it. I always look at Jozankei from above, but the view looking up from the river was beautiful. The guide was also very good at Japanese and very interesting! He took lots of photos for us. It's a good idea to bring a waterproof case for your smartphone. This company is very considerate because you can take photos with your personal smartphone, so there is no extra charge for photos. (This review has been machine translated)
  • An emotional experience

    I participated with my family. I was nervous about my first canoeing, but the foreign guide who spoke good Japanese was very kind and I soon felt at ease and enjoyed it. It was September 25th, so it was autumn, so we wore rain boots and didn't get wet anywhere. The autumn leaves, the water in the river, everything was so beautiful, it felt like a dream.

  • My daughter's first canoeing experience

    Participants: Daughter It was my first time canoeing so I was nervous, but the Nepalese guide was very kind and taught me in a fun way, and it was a great experience. I got absorbed in playing with stones and other activities that I don't even do now that I'm an adult, and it made me realize how important it is to get away from everyday life and be in nature. I'd like to experience it again during the autumn leaves season, as the scenery changes with the seasons. (This review has been machine translated)
  • it was fun!

    This was our second time participating as a family with an elementary school-aged child. The last time we went was during the autumn foliage season, but this time it was August and warm, so we had a different kind of fun swimming in the river and diving in. The autumn foliage season is very beautiful, but our children said they had more fun this time. If you go in the summer, I think it would be more fun if you wear clothes suitable for swimming. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was great!

    We enjoyed canoeing as a family of four! Our guide, who was from Nepal, and the staff member we called "Boss" were very kind and gave us detailed explanations, making it fun! I had no idea there was a place like this to enjoy in the city!! We played in the water up to our shoulders where the hot spring and river water met, and both adults and children had a great time! We were the only ones who swam up to our shoulders during the canoeing experience, so next time we'll try SUP!! As the reviews say, all three staff members were very kind and wonderful!! We'd love to stay here again! Thank you for a fun time!! (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was a very fun memory!

    I participated in the Jozankei canoe trip with my parents. The guide, who came from Nepal, was fluent in Japanese and gave clear and easy-to-understand explanations. When I couldn't paddle well, he noticed and assisted me right away, so I was able to participate with peace of mind from start to finish! There were laughs and fun surprises, the weather was great, and I was soothed by the sound of the river, the beautiful mountains and scenery. It was a very memorable trip! The only thing I would like to point out is that the inside of the car and the rental Crocs were not very clean, so if they could improve that, I would confidently recommend it to my friends.

  • The breeze felt good.

    I participated with a friend. The river was shallow and the current was gentle, so we could enjoy it at a leisurely pace. It was fine even if you were not physically fit. We gathered at 11:40 and returned to the original location around 1:30. I recommend participating with plenty of time. The water was clear and the greenery was beautiful, it was the best. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Third time canoeing

    Partner: I've never participated before because I'm afraid of water, but after my first canoeing experience last year, I'm hooked. The staff's explanations and responses are very good, and that's also part of the fun. I'd like to go and see the staff again. The scenery is great in both summer and autumn. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Enjoy the experience and the scenery at the same time!

    I participated with my boyfriend!! It was my first time in Hokkaido and my first time canoeing, so I was a bit nervous, but the staff explained things to me carefully, and even when we got down to the river, they watched over us nearby, so it was fun and I no longer felt anxious! (They spoke good Japanese!!) We went in mid-October, and it happened to be just the two of us, so it was a bit cold, but the autumn leaves were beautiful and I was impressed (although it would have been better if they were a bit more colorful). We got down to where we could stand and play, and it was just about okay, but next time I'd like to go in the summer and see some fish! Apparently you can swim a bit.

  • It was a beautiful view.

    I participated in this tour with my girlfriend during a trip to Sapporo. The tour conductor was very kind and the scenery was amazing. Apparently on busy days dozens of people participate, but we happened to have it all to ourselves and enjoyed a luxurious time. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Even beginners had fun!

    I participated with a colleague and a junior from work. Two families were with us, so they prepared not only two-seater boats, but also four-seater and three-seater boats. The meeting place is near the intersection, so be careful of your surroundings when going by car. They also showed us the parking lot for those who came by car, and gave us Crocs and a life vest! They also lent us a waterproof bag to put drinks and smartphones in! The instructor was a foreigner, and although he spoke broken Japanese, he taught us how to paddle a canoe and what to be careful about! He's a unique person lol After the explanation, we got on the boat and started paddling. From there, it was a lot of fun! The instructor gave us advice, so we were able to change direction without panicking! At the photo spot, the instructor took photos of each group, and he was very kind and helpful. You will probably want to get in the river, so I think it's a good idea to bring a towel so you can enjoy it with peace of mind! (This review has been machine translated)
  • First canoe experience

    An experience for an elementary school student and his father ☆ At first, he couldn't go in a straight line, but he gradually got better and seemed to enjoy it very much. The guide was cheerful and said he wanted to meet him again. I, the mother, made the reservation, and despite the short notice, they were extremely kind and I would like to make a reservation from here again!! Thank you very much!! (This review has been machine translated)
  • Canoeing

    I participated with three friends, and found out that we could get in at half price for Hokkaido residents, so we were looking forward to our first canoeing experience. However, I was the only one who forgot my driver's license to prove that I was a Hokkaido resident, so we couldn't get the half price and ended up paying 4,000 yen. I tried to negotiate with the staff (who were foreigners), but they didn't understand, which was a bit of a shock. Canoeing was a lot of fun, and although we couldn't go in a straight line and we were screaming, we managed to get used to it by the time we finished. Needless to say, it was a fun memory. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was so much fun!!

    I participated with a group of four friends. Although we weren't blessed with the best weather, kayaking in Jozankei surrounded by autumn leaves was an emotional and luxurious experience! The foreign guide was also very interesting, and we never got bored while kayaking, from the initial instructions to getting on the boat and finally disembarking! I'd definitely like to try this in other seasons as well, not just in autumn to see the autumn leaves! (This review has been machine translated)
  • It may not be enough for those with canoeing experience.

    We participated as a family of four (husband and wife, elementary school student, preschool child, and experienced canoeists). In the rain, we were thoroughly explained how to paddle and the course, and our bodies were chilled. When we got out onto the course and thought it was time for the real thing, another participant said, "This is not a good place to take photos!", which was very disappointing... The feeling of being constantly rushed seemed to be conveyed to the children, and they complained on the way back. There were many shallow spots on the course, so I guess it's not really suitable for a canoe course? I think it's not suitable for people who have already experienced canoeing on other rivers and lakes. The autumn leaves in Jozankei and on Route 1 along the way were very beautiful. (This review has been machine translated)
  • Second Canadian Canoe

    My husband and I went on this tour together. Although the guide was a foreigner, he spoke Japanese well and his explanations were easy to understand, so we felt at ease. The scenery was amazing, and the crew was very flexible. If we have the chance, we would like to try this tour again. (This review has been machine translated)

  • I was kept waiting

    We participated as a family of four, including an elementary school student and a preschooler. We had heard that the autumn leaves in Jozankei were beautiful, so we were looking forward to it. When we called the guide on the morning of the day to confirm whether we could park the car at the meeting place, he said, "You'll know when you get there." When we arrived, we still didn't know, so we called again and parked in the contracted parking lot of Jozankei View Hotel. We applied for the 12 o'clock start, so we arrived at the meeting time of 11:45, but the guide made us wait until after 12 o'clock without any explanation. We finally called out to him and moved to the parking lot near the canoe launch point. By the time we paid and put on our life jackets, it was already around 12:30. We walked to the launch point and got in the canoe around 12:45. In the second half of the tour, the guide urged us to "hurry up, hurry up." It wasn't our fault that we were late... The original end time was 13:00, but it was 13:30 when we finished and headed home. (This review has been machine translated)
  • First canoeing

    This was my first time participating with a friend. It was a little early for the autumn leaves, but... The scenery was beautiful and it was a refreshing experience. I wasn't very good at operating the canoe, but with the help of the guide's voice, we managed to get through. Next summer, I'll be participating with my 4-year-old grandson.

  • Canadian Canoe

    We participated as a family of three. We struggled to move in the direction we wanted, but the staff pulled the canoe and kept an eye on us, so we felt at ease. The weather was nice and it was a pleasant and fun experience. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
  • First canoe experience!

    I participated with my boyfriend on a birthday trip. On the day of the canoeing experience, the weather was unfortunate and it was almost impossible to hold the event, but the guide said, "If it's just rain, we can hold the canoeing experience. On the contrary, canoeing is more attractive when the weather is not so good." So we were able to do the canoeing experience that we were looking forward to. It was early October, and the leaves around Jozankei were just starting to change color. Canoeing in that environment allowed us to feel the nature and became a very fun memory. During the break in Nakasu, the guide was kind to us, who were there for sightseeing, by taking photos and explaining the Toyohira River. He even recommended hot springs to visit after canoeing, which was very satisfying. (This review has been machine translated)
  • We enjoyed canoeing and the autumn leaves.

    My husband and I participated at 12:00 on October 15th. Jozankei was very crowded because it was the best season for autumn leaves and we were blessed with good weather, but we were able to ignore the hustle and bustle and enjoy the beautiful autumn leaves while listening to the sound of the flowing river. The guide gave us a detailed lecture on how to operate the boat and took lots of photos, which became a great memory. We would definitely like to participate again in another season.

  • Perfect weather for canoeing⭐

    It was my first time canoeing with a friend. We were blessed with good weather and the autumn leaves were perfect! The guide was kind and took photos for us on our phones and digital cameras. It was so much fun that the time flew by, so if I have the chance, I'd like to participate in a longer trip! (This review has been machine translated)
  • Very satisfied

    This time, two families, a total of nine people, participated. I have been to Hokkaido several times, but I have never experienced an experience tour, so I participated because I was interested. The staff were very kind and polite. I was able to experience things that I would not have known if I had not participated, such as explanations of the temperature difference at the confluence of the rivers and the difference in water temperature, and it was the most fun memory of my Hokkaido trip so far! I would like to participate again. (This review has been machine translated)
  • I would like to participate again!

    We participated as a couple. Unfortunately, the autumn leaves were almost gone, but there were few participants that day, so we were able to receive careful instruction from the instructor. We also had many photos taken of us paddling as a couple, which became a very fond memory. My wife, who doesn't like sports, seemed to have enjoyed canoeing, and said she wanted to do it again, so we will participate again if we have the opportunity.

  • Cancellation after arriving at the destination

    I made a reservation for my mother and daughter. It was our first trip to Jozankei from Tokyo. We were really looking forward to it. We arrived safely in about an hour and a half. While we were looking for the meeting place, we got a phone call. "Because it rained yesterday, there is one area of concern, so we cannot hold the tour today." They contacted us about 15 minutes before the meeting time. It can't be helped that the tour cannot be held due to the weather, but couldn't they have contacted us earlier? ??? ??? ? In the end, we decided to take another hour and a half to go back to Sapporo. It was sunny in Sapporo the day before, and we never thought that the tour would be canceled. If you are planning to make a reservation from now on, you should keep in mind that there may be cancellations at the last minute. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was really fun.

    My wife and children both enjoyed this place the most out of our three-day, two-night trip to Hokkaido as a family. The autumn leaves were beautiful. As it was a weekday, there were no other guests, so we were very grateful to the staff for their kind hospitality. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
  • I will never participate again.

    This is my second time participating after last year. Last year was a lot of fun, so I participated with my child this year with high expectations. However, now I'm full of regrets. First of all, the instructor (part-timer?) was not very enthusiastic. Or rather, there were other families (twice as many as us), but he was basically glued to them and basically left us and my child alone. He did teach me how to paddle a canoe, but it's a repeat (I tried to say "Thank you for your help last year" several times, but I was interrupted halfway through, so I don't know if he got it. It doesn't matter now), but that doesn't mean I'm a canoe professional or anything. It's basically women and small children. Children are not useful at all. In other words, I basically feel like I'm paddling alone. In that situation, there were many people, and many adults on board, so I don't understand the point of staying with the other group, who can paddle better than us. In the past, he guided me from the beginning. I think he tied me to a rope from the beginning and paddled under the guidance of the instructor. I was probably naive and naive to expect the same thing. It was a good learning experience. This time, even if the canoe ran aground in shallow water, got caught on a tree, or was swept away by the current, the man was with his large family several dozen meters away and basically left us alone. Sometimes he came to help us, but I wonder if it was our fault for participating with only women and children. If so, I would like them to make it mandatory for two or more adults to participate. I was envious of the people in the canoes and boats of other companies who looked like they were having so much fun. We felt like we were part of a Spartan physical education class. There was no laughter, and there were no activities such as the children swimming in the river (there was one last year). They said, "If you want to swim, you can," but who would want to swim when there is no one else to swim? I don't think it would be possible unless you are a child who is very confident in your swimming (even if you are wearing a life jacket). Even if something happens while swimming, would you be able to deal with it when the instructor and lifeguard is always several dozen meters ahead of you? I thought maybe he just doesn't like kids, but before that, I don't understand why we, my child, had to be left alone. Is it because I'm bad at rowing? Did I do something that he didn't like? Anyway, I participated hoping to be healed by nature, but instead I ended up getting extremely stressed. I will never participate again. It's a shame because I'm a repeat customer.

  • The autumn leaves were the best

    It was my first time canoeing. I was given detailed instructions so it was a fun experience. The autumn leaves seen from the river were amazing. (This review has been machine translated)
  • I enjoyed it very much.

    Although we made a reservation last year, heavy rain was forecast, so we had to cancel. This year, we were able to get our revenge. We were blessed with good weather, and it was almost hot. It was still too early for the autumn leaves to change color, but we had a relaxing canoeing experience. We were able to take a break along the way, where the guide taught us a lot and took photos. It was a worthwhile day. Next time, I'd like to invite a different group of people. It was so much fun to find a place like this so close to the city. Next year, I'll bring my dog, who I recently started keeping. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It was so much fun!

    I love canoeing! Although this was only my second time, canoeing has become more familiar to me since I came to Hokkaido, and I've decided to go canoeing every summer (lol). So, this canoeing trip was a lot of fun. It was also very helpful that they picked me up and dropped me off at the hotel. I was also surprised at how clean the water in the Toyohira River was. It's surrounded by mountains, and it's the perfect environment for relaxation. I can't believe I got to experience canoeing there♪♪♪ I participated with my child, so the instructor rode with us. Thanks to him, we were able to paddle the canoe without any difficulty (actually, I don't think I paddled much lol). I'm grateful to the instructor. My child also had a lot of fun. We swam in the river and it looked very cool. I'd like to participate again during the autumn leaves season. I look forward to seeing you again then. (This review has been machine translated)

  • There's a place like this in the hot spring town!

    I took a leisurely canoe ride down the river while admiring the beautiful autumn leaves of Jozankei! It was my first time canoeing, and even though we went left and right, it was so much fun♪♪ I was surprised at how relaxing it was, even though it was so close to Sapporo city. It's truly a hidden gem☆ (This review has been machine translated)
  • Amazing view!!

    The scenery was so amazing that I participated twice. It's okay even for beginners. I really made good memories. Thank you to the guide! (This review has been machine translated)
  • This is a hidden gem!

    The autumn leaves at Hoheikyo Dam are famous in Jozankei, but this tour, which allows you to enjoy the autumn leaves slowly and quietly from a canoe, is highly recommended!! There is another way to enjoy the autumn leaves like this. I felt like it was still a little early for the leaves to change color, but the weather was nice and it was very relaxing♪ Nishiki Bridge, which can be seen from the canoe, seems to be a popular spot for photography enthusiasts, and the view from there was also beautiful. Maybe this week will be the best time to see it? Thank you to our handsome guide☆ (This review has been machine translated)
  • Beauty in Silence

    I heard on the TV news that the Toyohira River had risen to a flood danger level due to the typhoon, and that the soccer practice field along the river had been submerged, so I was a little scared, but when I actually went, although there were some branches and leaves on the water, it was calm and we were able to explore the valley, which was almost tranquil, with us all to ourselves ^^ Actually, I was a little late, which inconvenienced Amuse Sports, but they were very kind to entertain the large couple, and we were able to enjoy an activity together for the first time in a long time ^^ I had a small surgical removal of my right breast for breast cancer surgery five years ago, so I don't have much strength in my right arm, but I was able to enjoy it and fully enjoy Jozankei in early autumn, so I think anyone can enjoy it. Thank you, Amuse Sports ^^ (This review has been machine translated)
  • You can enjoy the autumn leaves from the water's surface.

    Living in Minami-ku, Sapporo, I thought, "There are autumn leaves all over the city, so I don't need to go out of my way to see them," but it's also fun to see the leaves from a different perspective than usual. The staff were also very kind. (This review has been machine translated)
