In the headwaters of the Yoshino River, which flows from west to east across Tokushima Prefecture, the Oboke and Koboke rapids are
said to be among the best in Japan. These are well known as rafting highlights for visitors travelling downriver in rubber dinghys . The
beautiful scenery of the gorges, rising from the river like marble sculptures formed over a span of 200 million years, and the glorious
emerald green of the river combine to attract many rafting enthusiasts. Several rafting world champions are based here, and since hosting
the World Championship in 2017, the Myoshi region has attracted attention from home and abroad as a rafting mecca. There are many
rafting tour operators in the area, and both beginners and advanced rafters can easily enjoy rafting here. In addition, the Iya Valley—one of
Japan's three largest unexplored areas—is also located nearby, a region of dramatic mountain valleys and magnificent natural scenery and
landscapes from which the unique culture of Japan originates. Why not try rafting in Tokushima Prefecture?
