Our guide
The Mogami is a Class A river in Yamagata Prefecture. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short, and we would rather say so than fill it out.
This page is for a boat trip on the river. Takaya Station on the Rikuu West Line is about 1.6 km from the point it is mapped to, in a straight line. We have not checked boat operators, times or fares, so look at local information before you go.
