Top Sapporo On the Water

Enjoy the popular standup paddleboarding (SUP) experience on the Toyohira River, which flows through Sapporo City! In the ravine next to Jozankei Onsen, you can enjoy the scenery while standing or sitting on a board. The average depth of the river is about 1 meter and the current is gentle, so there is no need to worry if you fall into the water. Some people even jump in by themselves when they get used to it. Children can also participate because the water is shallow. We recommend wearing a life jacket (bring your own or rent one) and having a great time with your dog.
