The "Goho no Taki" standing in the mountains of Yahazu-cho, Gifu Prefecture, is a famous place boasting a mystical landscape as if you have wandered into another world. The cascading waterfalls surrounded by rich nature create a serene atmosphere that makes you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
As the name suggests, Goho no Taki features a valley landscape with five waterfalls. Walking along the hiking trail, you will encounter beautiful waterfall views such as the First, Second, and Third falls, and finally be engulfed in the grand roar of the Fifth fall. The well-maintained gentle walking paths allow even beginners to easily enjoy trekking.
Goho no Taki is filled with abundant negative ions and the soothing sound of the flowing streams, creating a pure and clean air unlike that of the city. This natural environment refreshes the tired body and mind without any strain. You may also occasionally encounter fish swimming at your feet, allowing you to experience the breath of nature with all your senses.
There are inns around the waterfall that bear the name of Goho no Taki, serving as a place to rest that exudes the fragrance of the local region combined with the valley beauty. You can enjoy dishes made with fresh mountain blessings and savor the historical ambiance from the Edo period. The view of the waterfall from the dining area is an incomparable scenic delight.
Located in a depopulated area of Gifu Prefecture, Goho no Taki is still a hidden paradise spot known only to a few. However, the healing power of nature it offers to those tired of the hustle and bustle of the city is immeasurable. Why not visit this hidden valley scenery at least once?
