◆ Umenoki Todoroki Park - Umenoki Todoroki Park Suspension Bridge & Umenoki Todoroki Falls - Umenoki Todoroki Park features a 116-meter-long, 55-meter-high suspension bridge, the longest in Gokanosho, offering a view from above that feels like walking in the sky. Following the walking path across the bridge, you will find the graceful 38-meter-high Umenoki Todoroki Falls. Although the falls have been known for a long time, they were once called the 'Phantom Falls' because the rugged terrain made them difficult to access. Since the suspension bridge was built in 1989, visitors have been able to enjoy the view of these falls.

◆ Gokanosho Heike no Sato A themed facility that preserves the legend of the Heike refugees. The museum displays precious artifacts, primarily those related to the Heike refugees who settled in Gokanosho.

◆ Kamishiiba Dam Standing 110m high and 341m long with a total storage capacity of 91.55 million m3, this is considered Japan's first massive arch dam. The knowledge gained from its construction was later applied to the construction of the Kurobe Dam (the largest in Japan). We will view it from the Goddess Statue Park.

◆ Sennin no Tanada (Hermit's Rice Terraces) - A view of 'Japan's original landscape' from the Shiiba 'Big Ginkgo Observation Deck' The rice terraces carved along the mountain ridge are called 'Sennin no Tanada' or 'Shiiba's Machu Picchu' (because in the morning, the terraces appear to float in a sea of clouds, as if a hermit lived there). As large buses cannot access this area, we will transfer to taxis for this portion of the tour. Sennin no Tanada (Image)
