About this spot
Kanotoiwa Rock (神戸岩) in Kanoto, Hinohara Village, is a valley where sheer rock walls over 100 metres high tower on both sides. The Kanoto River (神戸川) flowing between them is a crystal-clear stream, and in summer families visit to enjoy water play in the shallows. Visitors generally approach via the Lodge Kanotoiwa campsite, and the walking path is usable all year. The distinctive landscape enclosed by sheer rock walls has a power that is hard to find in other valleys.

Tips
The water is chilly, so playing during the warm, sunny hours is recommended. Some rocky places are slippery, so non-slip shoes that can get wet are reassuring. In the mountain folds the sun also disappears early, so plan with time to spare.
Best time to visit
Entering the valley after noon means warm sunshine, and the coolness of the water feels pleasant.
