Fujigawachi Gorge
A stunning gorge with crystal-clear streams and monolithic stones
Located within the Sobo-Katamuki Quasi-National Park, Fujigawachi Gorge originates from Mt. Natsuki, standing at 1,386 meters above sea level, and stretches for about 8 kilometers. The gorge flows from Kannon Falls to the Fujigawachi settlement, offering breathtaking scenery of pristine streams and expansive, monolithic rock formations. Kannon Falls, standing approximately 77 meters tall, features water cascading down red granite, harmonizing with sunlight filtering through the trees to create a picturesque landscape. In winter, the frozen waterfall forms shimmering ice walls that sparkle in the sunlight, leaving a striking impression.
Each season brings its own charm to the gorge: fresh greenery in spring, river activities in summer, vibrant autumn leaves, and serene snow-covered landscapes in winter. From May to September, visitors can enjoy canyoning, making it an ideal spot for adventure enthusiasts.
