About this place

Gohotaki is a waterfall 80 m high in Yaotsu, Kamo District, Gifu Prefecture. It is made up of five falls in all: Ichi-no-taki, Ni-no-taki, San-no-taki, Niten-no-taki and Enmei-no-taki; Ichi-no-taki, Ni-no-taki and San-no-taki flow in three tiers. Niten-no-taki and Enmei-no-taki are said to be where Miyamoto Musashi, the swordsman of the early Edo period, trained. Nearby is also Daisenji, said to be where Musashi trained, and Daisenji and Gohotaki are on the route of the Musashi Legend Exploration Trail, a model course of the Chubu-Hokuriku Nature Trail.

Verification notes

*Barbecues in the river are not allowed. *The walking paths can be slippery underfoot in places. *The road to Gohotaki Park is narrow and hard to find, so please check a map beforehand. *Buses cannot pass because the road is narrow. *If you use a car navigation system, please enter the parking lot's address. (Entering "Gohotaki" may not work, or may not be displayed, depending on the car navigation system.) The second parking lot is before the first parking lot, so please use it if you come by bus. Large buses cannot turn around at the first parking lot. Also, it may be full because of the number of users.
