Forest Bath at the Island's Famous Waterfall, Cooling Off in Summer

About this spot

The island's signature waterfall flowing into Shiromizu Gorge Prefectural Natural Park in the inland region of Oshima Kamijima. The surrounding area features a lush green canyon, and as you walk the trail enveloped by the sound of water at the waterfall's base and verdant trees, you'll find this cool spot perfect for summer relief. It's a place where you can feel nature's richness intensely on the island, ideal for a rest during a hot afternoon. Car travel from Koe Harbor is essential.

Tips

About 15-20 minutes by car from Koe Harbor. The trail has some slippery sections, so wear comfortable walking shoes. In summer, mosquitoes are plentiful, so insect repellent spray is recommended.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 15 minutes. Visiting in early afternoon when the sun is strong makes the cool sensation all the more pleasant.
