- A waterfall located around 20 kilometers east of the Gero Onsen hot spring district and approximately 25 minutes by car from JR Gero Station. The falls have been selected as one of the 50 most renowned water-related destinations in Gifu Prefecture. The waters of this stunning, 21 meter drop waterfall originate in the mountains on the border between Nagano Prefecture and Gifu Prefecture. Visitors can get right up next to the falls’ basin. A campground and trailhead leading up Shirokusayama also located nearby, attracting many visitors in the summer seeking relief from the heat as well as in the fall to enjoy the autumn foliage. The waters here are also used to grow wasabi due to how little they vary in temperature.

- Kozakamachi, Gero City, Gifu Prefecture
- Tours of hiking courses which connect the waterfalls of the town of Osaka, which has over 200. Most of the waterfalls were formed by one of two eruptions by Mt. Ontake in the distant past. Each one is different, and tour-goers can take in the unique, beautiful natural scenery of Osaka. The area is divided into three overarching zones suited to different purposes and effort levels, such as the “Satoyama Fureai Zone,” which is designed for beginners and which has informational panels scattered along a well-maintained path. The “Okuyama Chosen Zone” for intermediates and the “Hikkyo Tanken Zone” for advanced trekkers are trackless paths and thus require a guide. Guided tours of the area are also provided.

Gifu Areas
Tucked away in the very center of Japan, Gifu prefecture houses mountains, old towns, and one of Japan’s greatest hot springs, Gero Onsen. A tour of the prefecture’s traditional architecture will take you from the mountain-enveloped wooden streets of Takayama to the mountain village of Shirakawago, where visitors can explore 250-year-old thatched roofed houses known as gassho-zukuri.
