[Nagatoro River Boat Ride] About 15 minutes by car from the Hotel
Enjoy the breathtaking Nagatoro Gorge in a traditional Japanese boat!
Glide down the Arakawa River as it shifts between rapids and deep pools, surrounded by dramatic natural scenery. Beyond the fun of the winding current with its changing pace, the landscape—shaped by Nagatoro’s nature—offers truly stunning beauty. Many boatmen are on staff, from young guides to seasoned veterans, skillfully handling their poles while entertaining you with their own unique commentary to make your ride even more enjoyable.
[Rafting] About 15 minutes by car from the Hotel
Along the rafting course is Chichibu-Nagatoro’s Iwadatami rock formation, designated a Special Natural Monument of Japan, with many spectacular viewpoints that can only be seen from the river!
[Kayaking] About 5 minutes by car from the Hotel
As you improve, river cruising and playing in gentle rapids become even more fun. Boats are also available for children and pets to ride along, making it a great family activity.
