What other travelers are saying about Kanmangafuchi Abyss
Wow…this entire area and trail is stunningly beautiful and worth every step I took exploring it all. It was so peaceful and serene and the combination of greenery and nearby water made for a heavenly experience. It’s the perfect place to relax and stroll with your thoughts and reflect on life. There are plenty of places to sit and rest along the journey and take it all in. It was a memorable day and I highly recommend exploring it yourself!
The path is located in the Kanmangafuchi area of Kamakura, a city in Kanagawa Prefecture. It is situated near the Kanmangafuchi Temple and is easily accessible from Kamakura Station.
Visitors can enjoy a tranquil walk along the path, flanked by hundreds of Jizo statues. These statues are adorned with red bibs and hats, and the path offers beautiful views of lush greenery and seasonal flowers.
The path is beautiful year-round, but many visitors find it particularly charming during the spring when cherry blossoms bloom and in the autumn when the leaves change color. Each season offers a different experience of the landscape.
I am not sure why google is saying this a ticket is required to enter this place.
I've had fun on my little nature walk in this place. Took a lot of pictures of course. But Pictures really will not justify this place. You need to go here yourself. It is worth the trip.
The river, the falls, the scenery. This is a wonderland to me.
What a dreamy, magical river walk. I highly recommend taking an immediate right when you cross to first bridge, and walking right alongside the river. There's a few sketchy bits with a slight risk of falling in but that's all the more fun. You come up again onto the main path when the Jinzo statues begin.
A really nice area out of the way of crowds and noise. A close walk from the Imperial Villa, so definitely one to add onto your list of things to see while in Nikko. Unfortunately the day we visited it was raining heavily so we didn’t get to see much of the trail, but from the little we did see it was really cool. Great lookout point for the river below
A peaceful place just outside Nikko and 100% worth the walk. Lots of statues with colorful red hats and a calming river running through the gorge.
The place feels a lot cooler in the summer and is a perfect place to just sit and unwind for a moment.
