Nishimi-no-taki Waterfall is located in Kazuno City, Akita Prefecture, at the gateway to Lake Towada.

Visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery year-round, from the fresh green of spring and the lush greenery of summer to the vibrant autumn foliage and the snowy winter landscape. This draws many tourists throughout the year. While the waterfall is a short distance from the parking lot, winter access by car can be difficult due to snow accumulation.
