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.

After rafting, I highly recommend packrafting! You can enjoy an adventure while experiencing the natural beauty of the Sea Sorapuchi River in a single-person boat. A guide will accompany you, so it's suitable for both beginners and experienced paddlers.

In the calmer sections, you can be soothed by the forest scenery, while in the faster-flowing sections, you can challenge yourself to control the boat. This highly flexible activity allows you to experience both the tranquility of nature and the thrill of adventure.
