Fukuroda Waterfall

Rate this destination:

In the small town of Daigo hides a magnificent beauty of Fukuroda Falls, one of the most renowned waterfalls in Japan, including Kegon and Nachi Falls.

It is also called "Yodo-no-Taki", which means the four step falls. According to Ibaraki Government's website, it actually consists of a fifth tier upstream, separately named as Namase Waterfall that can only be reached by hiking.

The falls stands 120 meters and stretches with a width of 73 meters. It is most beautiful in fall, when the autumn colors is at its peak, complementing the pearly rock walls of the falls; and in winter when the water is frozen solid like a fragile glass.
