Kayaking/SUP Boarding and Sake Tasting Autumn Trip

Kayak or SUP along the gentle Okutama River, surrounded by stunning autumn colors and mountain scenery!

After the paddle, take a short walk along a peaceful riverside trail to a local sake brewery, where you can sample freshly made, locally brewed sake.
