RyusogatakiwaterfallIkeda100 WaterfallsFukui

Sixty metres of water down a rock face in a narrow valley in Ikeda, one of the least populated municipalities in Fukui, and on the national list of a hundred notable waterfalls. What is unusual is how close the road runs: there is no hike at all — you park a hundred metres away and walk to the foot of it.

That convenience is offset by the road itself, which is narrow, winding and closes under snow from roughly late November or December through March. The valley is deep enough that the falls stay cool through August, and the water volume is reliable because the catchment above is forested. There are two small car parks, five and ten spaces, which tells you how many people are expected at once.

**Winter closes the road.** Late November or December through March, depending on snowfall. There is no winter access. **The road is the difficulty, not the walk.** Narrow, winding mountain roads with limited passing places. The falls themselves are a hundred metres from where you park. **Fifteen parking spaces in total.** Across two small lots. On an autumn weekend that is not many, and there is nowhere else to leave a car. **Summer is when the valley earns it.** Sixty metres of falling water in a deep narrow valley is several degrees cooler than anywhere else in the prefecture in August. **Ikeda is worth the drive beyond the falls.** The village has kept a rural landscape almost intact and has an adventure park and a traditional noh stage; it is one of the emptiest parts of Fukui.
