Set deep within Kanagawa Prefecture's western most limit is the rural district of Yamakita; an area of natural beauty which despite its low-key appearance, boasts a wealth of attractions including the impressive Shasui Waterfall.
Ranked within Japan’s top 100 waterfalls, Shasui has been famous amongst locals and enthusiasts for many centuries with a rich history dating back to the Kamakura Era (1185–1333).
Reaching over 69 meters in height and situated towards the end of a sparsely forested valley, you will easily be able to see this natural wonder from far away.
To get there: Take the Gotenba Line to Yamakita Station.
