Just a 90 min train ride from central Tokyo transports you into the mountains of Okutama. Great beginner canyoning and packrafting courses with incredible nature.

Canyons white water rafting tours are only held in the Minakami area. Spring brings world-class whitewater and high thrills. Summer is more mellow letting us play inside and outside the boat.
