At Oarakei Gorge Shiraiwa Bridge, during the autumn leaf season, the red and yellow leaves are beautiful even in backlighting, creating a fantastic scene in harmony with the pure flow of the stream. There are 20 waterfalls of various sizes, and the upstream Ootaki waterfall has a viewing platform. The maple leaves that spread out from the road down from Shiraiwa Bridge are also stunning, and you can enjoy a pleasant and quiet stroll while listening to the sound of the water flowing down from the sand control dam. The "Oomomiji," popular for photography and hiking, is also a must-see.
