The Yokotani River, which flows out of Mt. Akakura, has created a deep-cleft valley with waterfalls and rapid streams. One of such waterfalls is a straight and dynamic waterfall of the Uodome Watefall, which has a height of 10 m. In the season of fresh greenery, leaves leaning over the waterfall create a fine view. Broad leaf trees like beech trees and flowers of azalea and Vaccinium japonicum color up the gorge from season to season. The stream runs through the gorge is known for a good fishing spot for Yamame (Oncorhynchus Sakuramasu) and Amago (Oncorhynchus Satsukimasu).
