The gorge located in Chichibu-Tama-Kai National Park was registered in June 2019 as ““Kobushi UNESCO Eco Park.” Over an extended period, granite has been scraped off by the river, which has created what they call the most beautiful gorge in Japan, featuring cliffs, strange-shaped rocks and stones. Above all, the appearance of Kakuenpo, contrasted with the beautiful autumn leaves, is simply breathtaking. There are many other highlights, such as the Senga-Taki waterfall and stone gate, which is about 30m high. You can enjoy the promenade along the gorge and see the seasonally changing canyon up-close.
