Rafting
Enjoy the clear Shiribetsu river with family and friends
Rafting is the most popular outdoor activity in Niseko. Jump into a rubber boat with your friends and challenge yourself to a trip down one of Hokkaido's most beautiful rivers, the Shiribetsu river. Along with your fellow crew and experienced guide, you will enjoy the thrills and excitement of rafting on whitewater. Based on the season, Hokkaido Rivers offer rafting trips suited to adventure seekers with the large snowmelt in the springtime, through to lower graded tours that the whole family can enjoy in summer. Whether you are a first-timer or an experienced outdoor sports fanatic, rafting is amazing fun and suitable for all ages.
