Nametsu Falls

Nametsu Falls, Two-tiered waterfall in Shichikashuku, Japan

Nametsu Falls is a two-tiered waterfall in Shichikashuku that drops over dark rock faces in two separate sections. The water creates a wide curtain effect at the lower level before flowing into the Shiraishi River.

The waterfall formed on a tuff riverbed of the Shiraishi River and is also called Nikaidaki because its 10-metre drop is stepped in two tiers. It gained wider notice as a filming location for Shunji Iwai's 2020 film Last Letter, shot in Shichikashuku.

The falls appear as a filming location in Shunji Iwai's film Last Letter. The stepped, 10-metre-high, 30-metre-wide drop over tuff is also known as Futatsudaki, or two-tier falls, a name locals use for its two levels.

Access to both levels is provided by concrete stairs from the parking area near Route 113. Benches and rest facilities are located close to the parking area for visitor convenience.

The stepped, 10-metre-high, 30-metre-wide fall is also called Nikaidaki, "two-tier waterfall", for its two levels. Above it lies Nametsu Kotaki, a smaller fall 6 metres high and 15 metres wide on the same Shiraishi River. The falls appear as a filming location in Shunji Iwai's film Last Letter.
