Minoh Waterfall and nature walk through the Minoh Park
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Set yourself free from the hustling and bustling streets of big cities and dip yourself in nature, refreshing both body and soul.
Local Osaka people used to call this area with a phrase "Deep in the mountains of Minoh". Wild monkeys are seen at waterfall area from time to time.
The temple along the hiking road is the oldest ascetic Buddhism temple in Japan as it was an ideal training place to seek self and to be enlightened.
The area is a very popular hiking spot for Osaka citizens.
Let's enjoy the Minoh Quasi National Park, an Oasis very close to the city.

5.00Our guide came down sick and Ichiro stepped in to guide us to Minoh Falls! We loved him and the tour. Ichiro was so friendly and knowledgeable and very easy to talk to! It was so nice to get away from the city and see nature along with some cultural and historical experiences. The hike is not very hard and is paved the whole way. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a fun and different activity. Even my 22 and 25 year old sons loved it!

5.00This was a wonderful experience! Our guide, Ichi, was so knowledgeable, helpful and kind. His English was excellent. If he did not know the answer to a question he made the effort to find out. I recommend this tour 100 percent! It was a lot of walking but not too strenuous for a reasonably fit 66 year old.
Beautiful tour and guide

5.00This was a wonderful day away from the city. Hideoki was friendly and knowledgeable, spoke excellent English. He met us at our Osaka hotel and guided us through the metro and train (we paid our own fare - about 1000 yen total) for the trip to Minoh. The nature trail begins right in town, and is a gentle, paved trek through the forest to the waterfall. Lunch afterwards was included - he asked if we wanted Japanese or Western - and then a return to Osaka. He offered to take us to a shopping district- we were still suffering from jet lag so we declined but it was a kind offer. We fully recommend both the tour and Hideoki.
