Minoh Falls drops 33 metres at the end of a forest gorge that feels much further than half an hour from Osaka. Wild macaques live in the park; feeding them is banned, and they know what a snack bag looks like. Tours walk the riverside trail or cover it by e-bike.
Discover the tranquil beauty of Minoh, Katsuoji Temple, and Minoh Falls on a guided full-day tour from Osaka, blending culture and nature for an authentic experience.
