Sekinoo Falls

Sekinoo Falls is a waterfall in Miyazaki Prefecture that plunges over volcanic rock, creating a wide curtain of falling water. The water collects in a natural pool below, surrounded by steep cliff walls.

The waterfall served as a natural boundary marker between regions for many generations, shaping how local people understood the geography around them. Its steady presence and powerful flow made it a well-known reference point in the area's past.

The falls serve as a gathering place where visitors experience the raw power of flowing water in a natural setting. Local families use the surrounding paths to spend time together and connect with nature away from city life.

Free parking is available at the top, from which visitors can explore walking paths and reach several viewing areas. A suspension bridge connects different sections and allows closer views of the waterfall, especially at different times of day.

The suspension bridge sways slightly as visitors cross it, making the experience more direct and personal. The mist from the water changes throughout the day and seasons, creating different viewing conditions and photo opportunities.
