Packrafting in Doro-kyo Gorge

Dorokyo Gorge is a stunningly beautiful canyon located within Yoshino-Kumano National Park, stretching across the borders of Wakayama, Nara, and Mie prefectures. Formed over millions of years by the erosion of the Kitayama River, the gorge is famous for its breathtaking contrast between towering 50-meter-high cliffs, uniquely shaped giant rocks, and mysterious emerald-green waters. Doro-kyo Gorge is a mecca for river activities, perfect for river kayaking and packrafting.
