Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • The half course begins by climbing the promenade and entering the river from the top of an area filled with waterfalls. The course mainly descends, sliding through a series of small waterfalls. Since there are no waterfall climbs, the half course is recommended for those with less stamina. The half course offers plenty of enjoyment. You'll slide through and around approximately 20 waterfalls. Near the finish line, you'll encounter a succession of waterfalls, including a 10-meter-long slide, a 5-meter-high jumping waterfall, and a 6-meter-high, 70-degree-slope slide. Foreign language translations will be provided using a smartphone app. Feel free to participate alone. *Please note that we may not be able to answer phone calls during river tour hours (11:00 AM - 5:00 PM). Thank you for your understanding. *If you have an @ezweb email address, we would appreciate it if you could make a reservation using a different email address, if possible. We have experienced numerous cases where emails we send are not received due to email filters.
  • The entire route is about 1.5 km and starts from the canyoning
  • We head to the river entrance. Once we reach the river entrance, we will have a safety talk to ensure safe canyoning. We will start canyoning for the entire distance of about 1.5 km. We will walk, swim, climb waterfalls, and slide down small slides.
  • Highlights of the second half
  • The highlight of the second half is near the finish line, where a succession of attractions appear, including a 10m long slider, a 5m high jumping waterfall, and a 6m high slider waterfall with a 70° incline. From the start of the stream at the finish line to the parking lot, it's just a short climb.
