Ashikubo River

Japanese: 足久保川 - あしくぼがわ
Ashikubo River

...The length of the main river is 51 km, and the total drainage area is 567 km2. The main tributaries are, from upstream, Abe-Otani River, Abe-Nakagawachi River, Ashikubo River, Warashina River, and Maruko River. Because the main river is biased toward the east of the basin, all of these tributaries flow in from the northwest (right bank), and tributaries flowing in from the northeast (left bank) are limited to short, rapid streams.

*Some of the terminology that refers to the Ashikubo River is listed below.
