The easy classic is Minoh, a forested valley on Osaka’s northern edge where a riverside path climbs to a waterfall and the shops sell deep-fried maple leaves. Above it sits Katsuo-ji, a temple crowded with red daruma dolls. Further south, Mt Inunaki keeps up old mountain-ascetic trails and fire rituals.
Visit Katsuo-ji and Minoo Park on a small-group day trip from Osaka, with comfortable transport, flexible stops and a scenic walk to the falls.
