Nestled in the deep mountains of Shizuoka Prefecture, the Kawane Couple Waterfalls appear as a hidden gem for nature lovers and travelers seeking tranquility. The waterfalls are affectionately named 'Couple Waterfalls' as they flow side by side with a small and a large fall.
It takes only a 5-minute walk from the parking lot of the Shiogō Suspension Bridge to reach the Kawane Couple Waterfalls. Easy access and the richness of nature coexist here. The narrow path beginning at a small café leads to a breathtaking view.
The Kawane Couple Waterfalls consist of a delicate waterfall and a more voluminous one, each offering a unique water harmony that soothes and refreshes visitors' spirits. The sound of water falling into the basin and the verdant surroundings are akin to a natural spa.
The negative ions emitting from the waterfalls are perfect for refreshing a weary body and mind from the city’s hustle and bustle. Breathing in the fresh, cool air can sweep away your daily fatigue.
Spring’s fresh greenery, summer’s coolness, autumn’s vibrant foliage, and the solemn atmosphere of winter highlight the seasonal charm of Kawane Couple Waterfalls. Especially after typhoons or in the rainy season, the increased water flow presents a more impactful sight.
The allure of Kawane Couple Waterfalls goes beyond the falls themselves. Nearby, the well-known Shiogō Suspension Bridge offers thrilling adventure, and it's an ideal route to the Sumatakyo Gorge.
Recent landslides have changed some access paths to the waterfalls, but this is also part of nature's transformation. You might discover new charms.
Kawane Couple Waterfalls is a small natural jewel hidden in Shizuoka’s mountains. Escape the noise, envelop yourself in tranquility and freshness, and look forward to a special experience to rejuvenate your body and mind.
