A famous waterfall selected as one of "Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls," located upstream of the Kasedagawa River deep in the forests of Mt. Daisen. Falling heroically in two tiers with a drop of 42 m, it is full of powerful vitality combined with the surrounding primeval forest. The trekking course leading to the waterfall is beautiful with beech and oak greenery, ideal for enjoying a forest bath while bathing in negative ions. Especially during the autumn foliage season, the contrast between the white waterfall and the trees dyed in vivid red and yellow creates a superb view like a single painting. A perfect place for travelers who want to experience a spiritual space where nature's silence and the roar of water resonate.

Okayama

Hiruzen Kogen

Surrounded by 1,200m-class mountains, this is one of Western Japan's leading highland resorts. Jersey cattle graze in the vast pastures, and dairy products like fresh milk, rich soft-serve ice cream, and cheese are exquisite. Outdoor activities such as cycling, hiking, and camping are very plentiful, making it ideal for travelers who want to refresh actively away from the city. In recent years, new charms fusing modern art and nature have also been transmitted, such as the sustainable architecture "Kaze-no-Ha" designed by Kengo Kuma.
