鳥取 大山滝 Tottori daisendaki The Daisen-daki Waterfall

Jp En


The Daisen Waterfall is one of the waterfalls in the upstream of the Kaseichi River, which springs out of Jigokudani Valley at the foot of Mt. Daisen in Tottori Prefecture. It is a beautiful waterfall, which is counted as one of Japan’s 100 Fine Waterfalls. The waterfall flows down the height of 43 m in two stages. The upper stage is 28 m tall and the lower stage is 15 m tall. It used to be divided into three stages, but one of the stages disappeared due to Muroto Typhoon in 1934. The gushing water with roaring sounds and splashes is really overwhelming. The lower stage fall can also be seen from the hollow in the backside, where falling water feels very cool.

The promenade is arranged as a part of Chugoku Nature Trail project, so you can enjoy walking and forest bathing in the primary forest of beech trees. In fall, the mountain is colored with red and yellow leaves that make fine contrast with the waterfall. From Daisen-daki Suspension Bridge on the way, you can look down the most exquisite view of the Kaseichi River.
