Basic information
Located in Meiji-no-Mori Minoh Quasi-National Park, this waterfall is known as one of the "100 Great Waterfalls of Japan." The waterfall has a drop of 33 meters, and the sight of the water gushing down the cliffs is very dynamic. Minoh Falls was named after the shape of the water flowing down the cliff, which resembles the farming tool "winnowing basket," and it is said that the place name also originates from this. The area around the waterfall is surrounded by beautiful nature, with the fresh green of the maple trees shining in spring, a popular cooling spot in summer, and the snow-covered waterfall in winter. In particular, the fiery red leaves of autumn enhance the beauty of the waterfall.
