Mogami River Boat Descent · Basho Route
A river journey down the Mogami River that Matsuo Basho wrote about, accompanied by the boatman's boat songs
The Mogami River Boat Tour is a popular experience where you descend approximately 12 km from Furuguchi in Tozawa Village to Kusanagi in about an hour. The Mogami River boat songs sung by the boatman echo through the gorge, and you leisurely proceed while taking in the cliffs and waterfalls on both banks. The autumn foliage season is especially beautiful, and kotatsu boats also operate in winter. The poetry monument featuring Basho's haiku 'Samidare wo atsumete hayashi Mogami-kawa' is also a highlight.
