If you enjoy nature hikes and beautiful cascades of water then I highly reccomend adding a visit to Ryuuku Falls. Most pictures do not actually do it justice as it is much taller than it appears on film. The hike through the thick Japanese forest is also quite breathtaking and not overly difficult.

Yudaki Falls

Reviewed By TnTOz - Sydney, Australia

We visited here in Winter and the ice and snow made it more spectacular. We also took the short circular track to Kotaki Falls which was absolutely beautiful and easy to negotiate with just hiking boots and poles. Unfortunately, we couldn’t do the Sejogahara Moor trail from here because it was closed due to damage to the track further along.

Ryuzu Waterfall

Reviewed By 338siddharthb - Seattle, United States

There's two main things I want to say about Ryuzu Falls. First of all, it's very beautiful with red leaves and definitely one of the best things in Nikko if you're coming in autumn season. The second thing is unfortunately I had seen the photos online of it's peak colors, and set my expectations very high and even though it was very beautiful it wasn't as beautiful as some of the photos posted by others. To get the peak colors, you have to time your trip in a very short window between October 18th-24th. We came here on October 6th, when the autumn was on it's way but not peak. There are many stairs from the observation deck next to the coffee shop at stop 37, from where if you keep climbing you will keep getting ever-better views. At the top of the trail you will reach the bus stop 38, and you can see the fall on both sides in between foliage trickling down. Cross the road, to enjoy a thorough view of the falls.
