Rafting on the Yoshino River
Japan isn’t known for its adventure sports, but there is plenty to keep the active traveller busy in the Iya Valley. In fact, some of the most beautiful parts of this region can only be seen from the water, so there’s no excuse not to get your feet wet!
Tackle the mighty rapids of Shikoku's Yoshino River which races through the scenic Koboke Gorge. Spend a full or half day as part of a team paddling down the river in a big inflatable raft. You'll get to drift through pools, jump in, swim and generally get wet! Under expert instruction you'll raft through stunning scenery which can only be seen from the water.
