Don't miss one of Japan's best whitewater rafting experiences, with more than 7.5 miles (12 km) of Class III to IV rapids. This half-day rafting tour in Minakami is a continuous roller-coaster of whitewater action, plus the scenic canyon sections of Momiji Canyon, Minakami Canyon, and Suwa Canyon. It's most active in the spring; the summer tour is a mellower experience with less challenging rapids but still plenty of fun both in and out of the boat.

What to expect

Rafting is the sport of negotiating you way down a river in an inflatable raft. The Spring Season brings world-class grade 4+ white water rapids offering high thrills. The summer season the water level drops and the tour involves playing in and outside of the boat on a mellow grade 1-2 section. The two seasons are very different in terms of distance covered on the river and the type of experience, so pick your ideal thrill level.
