For much of its journey the Seta River flows smoothly along, but at a place called Kaeru-Iwa (which means Frog Rock) tumbled rocks disrupt the calm surface, tossing the water flow into a bumpy stretch of white water. A poster advertises rafting adventures, and sometimes there are small kayaks paddling in swooping circles, enjoying what my more knowledgeable friend tells me is called 'pot-holing'. I never heard of it before, but it looks like fun.
