The entrance is located at the end of the street in front of American Camping Village. You can see three waterfalls on compassable way taht takes 90 minutes by walk. As It has some steep slant, It's not for the experienced climber though.
Each waterfall has each view and different atmosphere. The Nejire no Taki Waterfall is srounded by rocky hillside and make an echoing sound of water's falling.You can feel some sprit.
