Experience Canoeing and Smelt Fishing in the Majestic Kushiro Marshland

"Lakeside Toro" is located on the shores of Lake Toro, to the east of Kushiro Marsh—the largest wetland in Japan. Surrounded by vast natural beauty, the facility offers guided canoe tours throughout the seasons. In summer, multiple tour plans are available, including routes along the scenic Arekinai and Kushiro Rivers, allowing visitors to choose the course that best suits their preferences. In winter, in addition to canoeing, smelt fishing on the frozen Lake Toro is also popular, making this a year-round destination for nature lovers.

Smelt fishing: a seasonal winter sight on Lake Toro

In winter, you can enjoy ice fishing for smelt and winter canoeing. A guide will teach you, so even beginners can participate. Another great thing about this tour is that you can have the smelt you catch made into tempura, and you should definitpate in the smelt fishing tournament that is held for a limited time.

A canoe tour where you can encounter the flora and fauna around Lake Toro

Canoe tours mainly take place on Lake Toro, located east of the Kushiro Marshland. Unlike river touring, the current is gentle and even beginners can easily participate.
