白水の滝

白水の滝, Natural waterfall in Kanna, Gunma Prefecture, Japan.

Description

Shiromizu no Taki is a waterfall in the Kanna area of Gunma Prefecture that descends over moss-covered rocks within a limestone formation. The water flows gently in cascades framed by the pale stone formations surrounding the fall.

History

This waterfall sits on Mount Kano, whose limestone layers formed during the Carboniferous and Permian periods. The geological structures have shaped the waterfall's appearance for millions of years.

Culture

Local residents of Gunma Prefecture maintain the natural state of the waterfall, preventing commercial development to preserve its geological features.

Practical

The waterfall is accessible from a small parking area near the mining tunnel entrance, with the Manyou no Sato rest area close by. The walk to the water is short and relatively easy to navigate.

Did you know?

The water seeps through underground passages before emerging at the surface, remaining clean and clear throughout. This gives the waterfall its characteristic bright appearance without the gray tint normally caused by sediment.
