Information

The experience
Pack a bottle, throw on your sunglasses, and follow me on a bike adventure to the famous Uriwari Falls! Learn about the culture and history of the local villages as you traverse them on your E-bike. At the end of your path lies the famous Uriwari Falls, known to have water so fresh and cold that it's flow can cut a watermelon in two, hence the name Uriwari (melon-splitting).

At Uriwari Park, drink water straight from the source, enjoy a Japanese snack, and relax while you take in the beautiful verdant woods. Water from the falls is considered to be some of the most delicious in all of Japan, when in 1985 it was selected as one of the 100 best water sources in the country by the Ministry of the Environment.

After taking a stroll through the Uriwari Park, time to head on back to Kumagawa-juku. Don't forget to check out the local souvenir shop on the way out!
