Mt.

A breathtaking 76m drop! Experience the relaxation of one of Japan's 100 best waterfalls

Mount Gyokusui, towering as a symbol of Nobeoka City, features a distinctive "horse saddle" shape. Its rugged form has attracted people of faith since ancient times. The mountain's greatest attraction is the majestic Gyokusui Falls, cascading down its slopes. Boasting a drop of 76.6 meters, this waterfall is one of the most famous, having been selected as one of the "Top 1 Waterfalls of Japan." The sight of the water gliding down the sheer, vertical rock face like a single white thread is truly awe-inspiring. If you approach the basin of the falls, you can feel the negative ions bathing your entire body and the power and refreshing sensation of the water. A trekking trail to the falls is approximately an hour from the trailhead. The path through the lush forest, accompanied by the murmuring of the stream, is perfect for refreshing both body and mind. Whether you choose to climb to the summit or simply hike down to the falls, you'll be able to fully experience the majestic natural power of this mountain. Why not forget about your daily life and experience the moving experience of being embraced by nature?
