Waterfall behind Sugi Shrine, Chizu

Beyond Sugi Shrine, a waterfall runs over mossy rocks in a wooded setting. The tourism guide calls it Ryutani Falls, while the town newsletter and photograph use Takitani Falls. Respect the sacred setting and avoid slippery rocks.

    Opening & visit notes
    • Closed on the first, third and fifth Monday of each month, moving to the next non-holiday if Monday is a public or substitute holiday. The annual New Year closure is December 29–January 3. Under the published normal rule, Monday January 4, 2027 is also closed, extending the continuous closure through January 4. Special 2026–27 openings or changes have not been verified. The last Sunday of each month has free admission, but no pear tasting.
    • Free admission on the last Sunday does not include tasting. Choose a normal paid-admission day if tasting is central to your visit.

    • Winter indoor displays and tasting are not an orchard-harvesting experience; this is not a promise of pear picking.
