Oboke and Koboke are dramatic gorges stretching approximately eight kilometers, carved over 200 million years by the torrents of the Yoshino River as it flows through the Shikoku mountains. They boast spectacular scenery with steep rock faces that resemble tall marble sculptures. Aboard the Oboke Gorge sightseeing boat, passengers can admire the beauty of the canyon up close and enjoy the marvelous landscape with engaging commentary from veteran boat captains.
