Canoes are small boats made of hollowed-out wood, and have been used for thousands of years as a means of transportation and as tools for hunting and transporting people.
In Japan, canoeing was adopted as an official sport at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, and it has become a popular sport that has produced many Olympic athletes.

In the Chitose area, where New Chitose Airport is located, canoeing has become a popular activity to enjoy the rich nature of Hokkaido.
Canoeing is a great way to enjoy Sapporo and Chitose in a luxurious way.
Here is an introduction to what kind of canoeing you can enjoy in the Chitose area.

If you are traveling with a group of people other than your family, you may want to try rafting in a rafting boat.
Rafting boats, unlike canoes, are large boats that can hold 6 to 8 people, making it a great activity for large groups.
While rafting usually takes you through intense water currents, on the Bibi River, you will be going at a leisurely pace.
This is a private tour, so you can create wonderful river rafting memories with just your friends and family!

If you want to enjoy private time in the Chitose area, let’s try the early morning canoeing!

Canoeing on the Bibi River is not only a family-only experience, but you can start as early as 6:30 in the morning!

Enjoying a canoeing experience with just your family on a quiet river in the early morning, you may be able to have some deep conversations that you normally wouldn’t have.

The morning coffee you drink on the canoe will be even more special than the one you usually drink at home!
