Shogawa Gorge Cruise

Shogawa Gorge Cruise

庄川峡遊覧船

Toyama · Chubu

The Shogawa Gorge Cruise is a passenger boat service that runs upstream from the Komaki Dam pier in Tonami through the reservoir gorge of the Shogawa river. Two routes operate: a round trip of about 60 minutes to Omaki Onsen, an inn reachable only by boat, and a shorter loop of about 25 minutes to the Nagasaki Bridge. Departure times change three times a year, with the fullest timetable running from April to November.

Why we picked it

The gorge cuts the whole northern approach to Gokayama, but visitors drive the tunnels above it and never see it from the water; the Omaki inn at the end of the line has no road at all.
