What other travelers are saying about Utsue Forty-Eight Waterfalls Prefectural Park
A true hidden gem! My 4 years old can go up to level 9 (out of 13 level). The trail is challenging enough to be fun for everyone 4-60 years old.
Ticket cost 200 yen for adults and 100 yen for kids. Plenty of parking space.
Wonderful experience and with waterfalls accompanying the hike. Comfortable footwear recommended as the path can be quite uneven, with quite a lot of stairs(rocky) to conquer.
It’s so soothing to be in the nature.
After the descent, we went into the visitor center to rest, there is free tea available.
The employee at the visitor center was very hospitable and he made us feel very comfortable. Thank you!
Beautiful area! We visited just the other day, and the snow was knee-deep, so we only went halfway up. No other people there at all. (March 18, 2024) Bring boots if you’re going to attempt this in the winter months.
Absolutely stunning views, especially with the fall color. admission is cheap at 200 yen and a free shuttle bus will get you there and back from hida-kokufu station.
Well maintained entrance makes for easy access. Trail is easy to follow, but can be slippery, isn't too steep, but has a few flights of stairs.
