Oshidori-Kakushi Falls, nestled in Yokoya Gorge, is a hidden gem known for its mineral-rich springs. The waters flowing through the gorge are rich in iron carbonate, which oxidizes upon contact with the air, painting the rocky riverbeds in a reddish-brown hue.
In the gorge’s acidic waters, you’ll find chatsubomi moss, a velvety green carpet that contrasts beautifully with the rust-colored rocks. The falls themselves cascade gracefully, adding a touch of tranquility to the vibrant landscape.
This stunning palette of colors and textures makes Oshidori-Kakushi Falls a must-visit spot for photographers and nature lovers alike!
