- Gifu Pref. Sekishi Horadokouka
- Koka Gorge is located in the Horado District in the northwestern part of the city of Seki, about a 40-minute drive from the Mino Interchange. A lovely section of the Nagara River runs for 4km through the gorge, and part of it has been designated Oku Nagaragawa Prefectural Nature Park, with rest areas and other facilities. The riverbed is made up of giant rocks and rock formations and has a whitish color, easily visible in the remarkably transparent water. Spring greenery and autumn leaves are also beautifully reflected in the surface of the water, and such sights are part of the year-round attraction of the gorge.

- Kaore Valley
- Travel / Tourism
- Gifu Pref. Sekishi Itadori Kawaura
- Kaore Valley is located in Itadorikaore, Seki City. It is surrounded by Mt. Samondake, Mt. Hinagadake and Mt. Takinami and formed by cliffs with a total length of about seven kilometers. Iwatsutsuji (a kind of azalea) around early May and fall foliage from late October to early November are the best to gaze on so you can see the beautiful scenery matched with emerald green on the surface. Particularly, the fall foliage here has also been selected as one of Hida and Mino’s top 33 fall foliage places.

- Kataji Gorge
- Travel / Tourism
- Gifu Pref. Minoshi Katadi
- Kataji Gorge—where the river never runs dry even in periods of drought, and the river water remains pristine even after heavy rainfall—is an approximately six-kilometer-long gorge located at the foot of Mt. Fukubegatake, the highest mountain within the boundaries of Mino City. Kataji Gorge and the surrounding area have been designated as the Oku Nagara River Prefectural Natural Park. The many waterfalls of differing sizes (such as Meoto-daki Falls) are well worth seeing, as are the huge rocks and strangely shaped rock formations (such as Senjo-iwa); there is a two-kilometer-long footpath that visitors can follow along the Gorge.

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.
