幣掛の滝

The Heikake waterfall measures 15 meters in height and creates white foam patterns as water strikes against dark rocks in the Aomori region.

Local inhabitants established spiritual connections to the waterfall, naming it Heikake which refers to the practice of hanging ceremonial paper strips.

The waterfall serves as a focal point for traditional Shinto practices, where priests conduct morning rituals and present offerings throughout the year.

The waterfall location near Route 102 provides direct access for visitors, with dedicated parking spaces and walking paths around the water feature.

During winter months, the water flow partially freezes, creating natural ice formations that contrast with the continuous stream of falling water.
