Inkura Falls

Inkura Falls cascades down in two distinct tiers through the forest, reaching a total height of 44 meters and spanning 10 meters in width.

The waterfall earned recognition through its inclusion in Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls list, establishing its status among the nation's natural landmarks.

Local residents of Shiraoi maintain traditional practices of environmental stewardship around Inkura Falls, preserving its natural state for future generations.

Visitors can reach the falls by following the marked paths along the Toishi mountain stream, with the sound of falling water guiding them to the location.

During winter months, sections of the waterfall transform into frozen formations, creating natural ice sculptures against the rocky cliff face.
