【A Journey Through Silence on the Water】 Encounter the hidden expressions of the forest with 'Hatori Lake Canoe & Kayak'

At an altitude of about 700 meters, 'Hatori Lake' is one of the lakes closest to the sky. Canoes and kayaks gliding across its transparent surface instantly transform the scenery we see in our daily lives into a fantastical other world. The only sound that echoes on the lake is the faint noise of paddles cutting through the water. Here, the ultimate silence unfolds, where the forest and water blend together.

■ Invitation to the 'Sanctuary' only accessible from the lake

The greatest pleasure of the canoe experience at Hatori Lake lies in the ability to closely observe bays and pristine forests that cannot be accessed by land.

  • Revolution of Perspective: The fresh green and autumn leaves viewed from a perspective just above the water's surface are overwhelming in scale. The experience of passing under the branches of trees that jut out over the lakeshore and navigating the intricately winding 'Water Corridor' gives you a sense of exhilaration as if you have become an adventurer.
  • Heartbeat of Life: Occasionally, you can see fish leaping from the surface and wild birds soaring in the sky. You can experience a humble and pure sense of unity, as if you are gently intruding into nature's embrace.

■ A Free 'Water Walk' that Releases the Heart

A canoe without engine noise offers a luxurious time to feel the wind and read the flow of water with your own strength.

  • Gentle Still Water for Beginners: Hatori Lake's calm waves make it appealing for first-timers and families, allowing them to paddle out with confidence. The sensation of gliding over the water, freeing both body and mind, becomes an irreplaceable 'healing' experience.

The blue of the sky, the green of the mountains, and the coolness of the water brushing against your fingertips. Would you like to experience a 'free holiday' where you can monopolize the vast panorama of Hatori Lake?
