Yudaki Falls
Tochigi

Yudaki Falls

One of Japan’s "Top Three Waterfalls," where the waters of a mountain lake plummet down a 97-meter cliff in a single, thunderous drop. From the observation deck, you can feel the sheer power of nature through the roar and misty spray. The vibrant autumn foliage and the ethereal "blue ice" frozen falls of winter are masterpieces of natural art.
