A guide will accompany you, so even if you are new to river trekking, you can feel at ease. You will walk along a river so clear that you can see the bottom. If it gets too hot, you can swim, jump in, or let yourself go with the gentle current. It is an activity that even adults can enjoy. You can play safely as you will wear a life jacket. You will have lunch by the clear stream. You may also encounter creatures. It is a day where you can feel the untouched nature with your whole body. [Period] Held from July 1st to mid-September.
