Enjoy water play in the stream until evening

About this spot

Kannagawa Waterside Park (神流川水辺公園) is a park laid out along the basin of the Kanna River, which flows through Kamikawa Town, Kodama District. As a park it is open year-round and admission is free. It offers a stream designed for getting close to the water, large play equipment and seasonal plants, and it bustles with families from the town and beyond. The stream is shallow so even small children can play in the water safely, and you can pass unhurried hours in the peaceful atmosphere surrounded by greenery.

Season & hours

Tips

The water in the stream stays cool even during the day, so playing during the warmer hours is recommended. The stones underfoot can be slippery, so amphibious shoes are reassuring. There is often no shop nearby, so prepare drinks and snacks in advance.

Best time to visit

Arriving from around noon means the water has warmed up, letting you enjoy water play comfortably until evening
