[Best Time for Autumn Leaves] Akamizu Waterfall
November 1–20, 2026
Akamizu Waterfall is said to have formed when Mount Otani collapsed during the Hoei earthquake in 1707, damming the Abe River. The name comes from the water that reportedly ran red with soil at the time of the landslide. Heading north on Prefectural Road 29, look for a large sign and parking area along the roadside. The impressive waterfall, together with the surrounding autumn foliage, offers a beautiful blend of power and serenity.
