About this place

A waterfall 32 m high in the Tedori Gorge in Hakusan, Ishikawa Prefecture. It gets the name Wata-ga-taki from looking as if cotton has been torn off and dropped. The stairs down close to the falls are steep, about 130 steps, and slippery. If it is hard to descend, you can view it from the observation deck about 150 m along the promenade from the parking lot.
