Overview

You'll be hit by a boulder's cliff, which is said to have exploded during the mid-life period, and there'll be a difference of up to 126 meters. It is named Shiraito Falls (Yamagata)69m). Since the area of the upper part of the country is not low and the volume of water is low, there are so many differences but few waterfalls. But on the other hand, when it rains, the rising water is very strong. The walkways have been laid out from the parking lot, and we walk around the haiku for about 500 meters or 10 minutes. There's a "Watch Out for Snakes" sign. A waterfall platform has been set up. (The Land of Tsukishima, Japan, of the Fukumoto period) There is a description of "Nuji Oshima."

The surrounding facility

(The parking lot's main and the big buses' parking space is a few). (The public toilet wash). Miyoshi Hall site. The rights shrine. We can hope for a rough wave at the top of the waterfall from the residence.
