Overview

Mitsudaki Waterfall is a three-tiered waterfall located in Ochiiai, Kosaka-cho, Gero-shi, Gifu Prefecture. It's situated on the Kosaka River, a tributary of the Dakagawa River. Boasting a 30m drop, it offers a majestic view surrounded by lush nature. A well-maintained walking path from the parking lot leads to the base of the falls, allowing you to experience its power up close. The easy-to-walk path makes it accessible for families with young children. At the base, you can immerse yourself in the abundant negative ions and feel the invigorating power of nature. The surrounding area offers many other nature spots, such as Gandate Park and another waterfall, "Kosaka no Taki Mitsudaki." Gandate Park is located right near Mitsudaki Waterfall and features walking paths, observation decks, rest areas, and even a playground for children. Another waterfall, "Kosaka no Taki Mitsudaki," is located about a 10-minute drive from Mitsudaki and, though smaller (approximately 10m drop), is also worth seeing. The area also offers camping sites and onsen (hot springs), making it an ideal location to enjoy nature. Its proximity to Gero Onsen makes it perfect for a combined onsen and nature experience. Gero Onsen is a long-established hot spring resort, famed for its beautiful waters. The onsen town boasts a lively atmosphere with numerous ryokans (traditional Japanese inns), hotels, and restaurants. The Mitsudaki area is perfect for hiking and trekking, with trails for all levels of experience, from beginner to advanced. Trekking trails offer stunning views of mountains and valleys. The tranquil atmosphere, surrounded by nature, provides a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Combine the majestic natural beauty and the waterfall's splendor with a relaxing onsen experience for a truly rejuvenating trip.
