Will you take Sagano Scenic Railway and Boat-riding?


Enjoy the seasonal landscape-spring-time from the tram and the boat.

The open-air tram offers a pleasant, refreshing recreation ride.

It is a slight tour from Arashiyama to Kameoka about 23 minutes,but if you alight at the in-between stop at Hozukyo Station, you can enjoy a leisurely nature hike around the area.

To return to Arashiyama,you can take a cruise go down to Hozugawa river.

A skilled boatman manipulates with the rudder, the paddle, and pass through between the rocks. It about 2 hours ride.
