Hozugawa Kudari

Kyoto / Kameoka

Hozugawa Kudari is a river cruise along the Hozu river over several kilometers on traditional small boats. From Kameoka to Arashiyama in Kyoto, the trip alternates between peace and bustle when it comes to rapids, which are mastered by experienced sailors who carry on a centuries-old tradition. You can combine this experience with Torokko Sagano’s themed train to reach the upstream river.
