Overview
Located in Naga Town, Naga District, Tokushima Prefecture, Ogama-no-taki Waterfall is a magnificent 20-meter waterfall, proudly listed among Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls. Situated on the Kamega-gawa River, a tributary of the Naga River, its grandeur is truly overwhelming. The 15-meter-deep plunge pool is steeped in legend, said to be the dwelling place of a giant serpent, adding to its mystical atmosphere. Surrounded by 100-meter-high cliffs and lush greenery, the valley is a masterpiece of nature. Its impressive form is visible from National Route 193, making it easily accessible. However, parking is limited, so please be mindful. You can descend to the plunge pool via a narrow staircase with handrails. Getting closer to the base of the waterfall, along the rocks or the rapids, is also possible, but it's quite dangerous, so proceed with extreme caution. The roar of the cascading water and the refreshing air create a truly healing space where you can leave behind the hustle and bustle of city life. This is a highly recommended spot for anyone visiting Tokushima Prefecture.
