Kegon Falls drops about 97 metres from the outlet of Lake Chuzenji, and a lift cut through the rock takes you down to a platform near the base. Pay the small fee; from down there the spray and the noise finally give you the scale.
Discover Nikko’s stunning waterfalls, historic shrines, and tranquil lakes on a well-organized day trip from Tokyo—perfect for culture lovers and nature enthusiasts.
