Picchio Summer Program: Fun river activities for parents and children2025/7 / 19-8 / 20

2025/05/28

Picchio, a nature experience activity provider, will introduce two programs for playing in the clear stream "Yukawa" that flows through the Hoshino area. The experience of touching a natural river will be an unforgettable memory of your summer vacation.

"Parent-Child River Trekking" is aimed at elementary school children and is a slightly wild river play experience that involves wading upstream using ropes and searching for fish at the bottom of the river.

For preschool children, we recommend "Explore! My First River," which allows them to get familiar with the shallow waters of a river. Experience a natural river and take a peek at the world of creatures that live in the water.

Both are popular programs where parents and children can enjoy playing in the river together. For details of the programs and reservations, please visit the Picchio official website.
