Bridge Spots in Fukui Area

  • Kazurabashi Bridge
    Travel / Tourism
    Fukui Pref. Imadategunikedachou Shiduhara
    A 12 meter high, 44 meter long rope bridge spanning the Asuwa River in Ikeda Town, Imadate County, Fukui Prefecture. This unusual bridge was made from hardy kiwi and other vine plants. The bridge crossing is a thrilling experience—you can view the swift river below through the large gaps between the bridges footboards. The bridge sways significantly whenever anyone crosses, and even adults will need to dig up some courage to make the journey. The distinct, seasonal beauty of the valley is a must-see. The bridge is closed from early December until the end of March.
  • Hakogase Bridge (Lake Kuzuryu Yume no Kakehashi)
    Travel / Tourism
    Fukui Pref. Onoshi Hakogase
    With the official name of Hakogase Bridge, this 266 meter bridge spans across Lake Kuzuryu. The autumn leaves season is particularly impressive for the beautiful deep green of the lake’s surface and the colorful leaves of the trees. Why not stop off at the nearby Roadside Station Kuzuryu or Kuzuryu onsen’s (hot spring) Heisei no Yu baths.
  • Tsukumo Bridge
    Travel / Tourism
    Fukui Pref. Fukuishi Tsukumo 1-chome
    The original Tsukumo Bridge was famous for its usual half-wood, half-stone construction, with the northern half being made from wood, and the southern half being made from stone. Also known by names such as Kitanosho Ohashi Bridge, the bridge has historical ties to Shibata Katsuie. Built after Katsuie took command of Kitanosho Castle, it survived for 330 years until it was replaced in 1909.

Northeast of Kyoto, the ancient Tojinbo Cliffs separate Fukui prefecture from the Sea of Japan in a stretch of land well worth exploring. Water sports and seaside delicacies are available in abundance as the spectacular rugged coastline flattens down into beaches to the west of the prefecture, while inland, Fukui is home to Zen Buddhist temples and historic ruins.
