The Funatsugawa River in Kihoku Town, Mie Prefecture, is a scenic spot perfect for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Ideal for canoeing and kayaking, the river offers a unique floating experience amidst beautiful surroundings. While some visitors have noted the lack of prominent signage from Route 42, the river's natural beauty, including diverse wildlife like turtles, eels, and koi, makes it a worthwhile destination. Located a 20-minute walk from Aiga Station, the Funatsugawa River is best visited during the day to fully appreciate its serene atmosphere and clear waters. Note that the area experienced significant flooding in the past, but renovations have restored much of its original charm.
