Hokkaido is a water lover's playground. Whilst Niseko may be most renowned for its spring or summer rafting activities, the Shiribetsu River has much more potential for adventure. Why not consider an exciting activity such as canyoning, ducky, canoeing or bait fishing this green season?
For those looking for a bit of a challenge on the water, be sure to try a ducky (inflatable kayak) tour with NAC. Sit in a small, two person raft and have your own kayak oar to steer with. Your experienced guide will show you the necessary techniques to help you get through the downriver ducky tour.
