Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit the Goho Falls gorge and Jindo-no-Oka Park. The two places are separate, so plan transport and return times for each.

This guide covers places within Yaotsu, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Goho Falls

五宝滝

A wooded gorge with several waterfalls. The photographs show the three-tier cascade and Ichino Falls in January 2025. Visit in daylight because there is no lighting, and take care on wet steps and rocks.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
