Forty-eight is a figure of speech meaning a great many; there are more than twenty named falls along this gorge, strung out over a 3.3-kilometre path in the Muro-Akame-Aoyama Quasi-National Park. It appears on the national lists of hundred famous waters, hundred waterfalls, hundred forest-bathing woods and hundred walks, which is an unusual clean sweep.

It was also a training ground for the Iga ninja, who came here from over the ridge. Entry is through the Akame Waterfall Aquarium — until 2024 the Japan Giant Salamander Centre — which keeps around fifty animals of nine species including giant salamanders bred here. Admission of ¥500 covers both the aquarium and the gorge, and the walk to the last fall and back takes about three hours.

인사이더 가이드

**The ticket includes the aquarium.** ¥500 covers both, and the entrance to the gorge is through it. The giant salamanders are bred on site. **Three hours there and back.** To the furthest named fall and return on the 3.3 km path. Shorter turnarounds at Fudo, Senju and Nunobiki are perfectly reasonable. **Winter hours are shorter.** Half past four closing from December to early March, and the path can be icy. **Ninja trained here.** Iga is over the ridge and the gorge was used for austerities. The town runs ninja-themed events on that basis. **November is the season.** Autumn colour over the pools, and the car parks fill. Fresh green in May is nearly as good and far quieter.
