Ameushi Waterfall 黄牛の滝

@take_tabi

The waterfall is located below the Inaba Dum in the Kamisakata area of Taketa city.
It is not a large waterfall but it is worth seeing because of its landscape of rocks and amount of water.
【Legend】
To placate a malignant dragon god, villagers threw the head of the yellow calf into the waterfall basin following the advice of the Buddhist monk. In a moment, it was calmed.

The waterfall is nearby a “Deai-no-Yu” which is the Onsen (hot spring) facility. When you head for the waterfall, please follow the signs of “Deai-no-Yu” (出会いの湯).
※Deai-no-Yu is currently closed.

※There is no public transportation to reach the waterfall. Please visit there by car.
※Please come in comfortable clothing and shoes.
