Fukuroda Falls


Fukuroda Falls are located in Ibaraki Prefecture in the town of Daigo district Fukuroda  The Taki River  has its source spring just above the falls. The river flows through the falls and ultimately joins a major Kuji river

The width of the falls is 73 m, while the height reaches 120 m. During winter the falls may freeze. The falls are ranked as the third most beautiful waterfall in Japan, coming after Kegon Falls and Nachi Falls

To get there by car, go up the Joban Expressway to the Naka Interchange and exit back towards Tsukuba. Turn right at the first main road and then again right on Route 118 a couple of km up from there. Continue up 118 through Omiya for about 35 km. The falls are to the right just shortly before you get to Daigo Machi.

The closest train station is Fukuroda JR station located 2 kilometers away.
