    This place is absolutely beautiful and worth even a long drive to see it. You'll probably have to pay Y1000 yen for parking (that you can put towards the shops items like apples or miso etc). You can find free parking at the traffic light slightly south of the falls. This place is beautiful all year but I recommend autumn as the colours are just amazing. If you're interested in taking great photos, best to go really early in the morning because this place is a tourist attraction with lots of visitors.

    (Translated by Google) It seems that the silk thread is falling to the bottom, so it's very beautiful. I want to see it up close, but it's dangerous, so it's enough even from a reasonable distance. (Original) 絹の糸が底に落ちていくみたいで 凄く綺麗 間近で見たいけど危険なので程よい距離からでも充分

  • 5/5 しゅくん 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I was surprised to find that a waterfall was a waterfall from above. When I went to see the flow around the time of the thaw, the water flow was strong and it seemed that I was walking on the riverside on a typhoon day. I understood that there was a sign to keep the hand holding the child. Because the flow is inevitable and there are places where people seem to be standing in the waterfall, the impression can not be expressed well in words, It's best to see this with your own eyes than to read the explanation. I did not understand well because I went to the parking lot for the first time, I entered the paid parking lot that I saw, but when I noticed later, there were many free parking lots, so please take a good look if you go by car. (Original) 滝とは上から水が落ちるものだと思っていたのに、ここには驚いた。雪解け水の頃に流れを見に行ったら、水の流れは激しく、台風の日の川辺を歩いているようだった。子供を繋いだ手を離さない様にと看板があったのが良く解った。 流れがいりくんでいて、人が滝の中に立っている様に見える所もあり、感動は言葉では上手く言い表せないから、 此処は説明文を読むより自分の目で見るのが一番。 駐車場ははじめて行ったので良く解らず、目に着いた有料の駐車場に入ったが、後から気付くと、無料の駐車場が沢山あったので、車で行かれる方は良く見てください❗

    Very nice place to see nature with your family and loved ones. There are also small shops that sells vegetables and fruits. If you are planning to eat near the vicinity, expect a simple lunch with simple japanese dishes. Also, this can be a romantic place when you are planning on moving on with your relationships. Just pick a day that is not too busy and that would be perfect.

    Unique waterfall to visit in Gunma. It's about a 1 km circular path to see the falls and hike. There are two suspension bridges along the path for a nice look over the river. Free parking and a couple of shops, by the entrance to the path, but nothing else in the area. Since it had rained the morning we visited, the path to see the falls up close was closed.

  • 5/5 Ayustet A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) 100 waterfalls in Japan. It is said to be the oriental Niagara, but it is far from the original Niagara. However, the appearance of falling into the cracks is magnificent and powerful. The amount of water seems to change depending on the season, and when the amount of water is low, the delicacy increases rather than the force. I'd like to get closer to the basin, but it's restricted by ropes. Be careful not to slip and be washed away. There is a promenade along the river that you can do for a week. Crossing the suspension bridge, there is a floating island and Kannon-do. There is also a waterfall on the mountain side. However, the vegetation is overgrown and it does not look good. Winter may be good here. Fukiware Falls has various scenery throughout the year. Please visit and see it. (Original) 日本の滝100選。 東洋のナイアガラと言われているが、本家のナイアガラには到底及ばない。ただし、割れ目に落ちていく様は、雄大かつ迫力がある。 季節によって水量が変わるようで、やはり水が少ないときは、迫力よりも繊細さが増します。 滝壺まで近付きたいところですが、ロープで制限されています。滑って流されないように注意しましょう。 遊歩道が川沿いにあり、一週出来るようになっています。吊り橋をわたると浮島があり、観音堂もあります。また、山側には観瀑台もあります。が、草木が茂って良く見えません。ここは冬場がいいかも知れません。 吹割の滝は通年を通して色々な景色が見られます。是非一度、訪れて見てください。

    It's really a nice place to walk in the nature. There is a shrine at the top of the cliff which you can access by the suspension bridge. There is no entry fee or anything. But for parking you need to pay or park it in any storefront parking area.

    One of the most famous waterfalls in Gunma Prefecture. Lovely place to visit with your lovely ones and take some pictures. You could go through the jungle and take photos but it takes around 40 mins. There are so many restaurants around. Both paid and free car parks are available.

    Beautiful and easy loop hike! There is a long path and a shorter path- both are relatively easy. We did the longer path and it took about 40 minutes (stopping to take pictures). There are some stairs going up and down- the paths are well maintained and easy going!

    (Translated by Google) The promenade will be closed in winter from early December to late March of the following year (scheduled). You cannot enter the promenade and you cannot see the waterfall. The nearby parking lot is also closed. (Original) 12月上旬から翌年3月下旬(予定)まで、遊歩道は冬季閉鎖されます。 遊歩道への立ち入りはできず、滝を見ることはできません。 付近の駐車場も営業しておりません。

  • 4/5 Hit U. 8 months ago on Google • 343 reviews
    I stopped by this spot before going back to my home. You can enjoy nice view with falls here. One or One and a half hour should be enough to walk around this area. Better wear hiking shoes as the surface on walking pass is not paved, but rocky.

  • 5/5 ジェームス 3 years ago on Google • 88 reviews
    Loved it! The highlight of our entire trip to Ibaraki. It was breathtaking to see something so spectacular carved out and moulded by mother nature over millions of years. It was, being a tourist hotspot, crowded with keen tourists who thronged the entire pathway of the waterfall like ants, but polite and orderly ants at that, that never litter! It's apparently best to go during Autumn when the leaves take on the glorious yellow and red colors!

  • 5/5 Edward F. 1 month ago on Google • 52 reviews New
    Be aware that you can’t get close in winter as they are closed for safety reasons. However if you are near by then you can look down from above and they are very spectacular.

  • 5/5 Fatima T. 7 months ago on Google • 51 reviews
    First time experience with a fall which is eye level. easy to access. good parking spot. very big area. a lit of thing to explore. also saw monkey family. But it is suggested to be careful, specially with babies. It might be deadly if someone crosses some certain point. recommended to visit.

  • 5/5 Nadeesha W. 3 years ago on Google
    Stunning spot. You can not get into the water. But still you can walk along the river. You can find a car park near by, cost around 500¥.

  • 5/5 TominJapan 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful and fearsome river. Be careful, the stream is strong and unpredictable. Dangerous in winter when it's slippery.

  • 5/5 秋葉一弥 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The best power spot where you can see the amount of water and the power of the river width right next to you (Original) 水量と川幅の迫力が直ぐ側で観ることができ最高パワースポット

  • 4/5 パサ 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It took about an hour to walk around. (Original) ぐるりと一周歩くのに1時間位かかりました。

  • 5/5 mahesh b. 10 months ago on Google
    It was a nice experience First place in Japan we see a water fall with such fast floating water and you get a chance to see flow very close. And the mountain rocks give a feel like Aliens sculptures. Recommend place to visit.

  • 4/5 ワタナベタマオ 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) You should actually go and see it. It is more powerful than you can see on TV and photos, and you can enjoy the beautiful ❣ surrounding promenade. (Original) 実際に行って見るべきです。TVや写真でみるより迫力があり、美しい❣周りの遊歩道もかなり楽しめます。

    (Translated by Google) I can't wait to see it many times! ️ It's a pity that I missed the time of autumn leaves. (Original) 何度見てもあきません‼️ 紅葉の時期を逃したのがチョット残念です。

  • 4/5 はんばーぐ 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I don't think it was there when I visited before, but the ropes that were not allowed to enter for safety were conspicuous. To be honest, I didn't feel like seeing a powerful waterfall, but I was able to enjoy the scenery by looking at the large rock surface and the river flowing under it. After that, the 60th birthday mother seemed to be out of breath on the long stairs on the way home, so please be careful if you are not good at it. (Original) 以前に訪れた時には無かったと思うのですが、安全対策のための立ち入り禁止のロープ等が目立ちました。 正直あまり、迫力満点の滝を見たって感じはしなかったですが、大きな岩肌やその下を流れる川を見て景色を楽しむことは出来ました。 あとは、帰り道の長い階段で還暦の母が息切れでつらそうだったので、苦手な方はお気をつけ下さい。

  • 5/5 John B. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice waterfall but there are better ones along the route. Cant see the water hit the bottom due to being roped off for safety. Parking is $5. Cool shops on the way out of the trail.

  • 4/5 taka o. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's a pity that you can't see the waterfall from below, but it's unique that the flow goes down. A hiking course that crosses the bridge is also good. However, you can hardly see the waterfall from the hiking course. Watch out for bears while enjoying the sound of the waterfall and enjoy the forest bath. You can enjoy it at a reasonable distance. (Original) 下から滝を見ることが出来ないのが残念ですが、流れが落ちて行くところが独特ですね。橋を渡って行くハイキングコースも良いですよ。ただ ハイキングコースからは滝はほとんど見えません。滝の音を楽しみながら熊に気を付けて森林浴を楽しみましょう。距離も適度で楽しめます。

    Sunken, striated falls and bottomless whirlpools... The mysterious valley stone-basin is smooth and folded like worn, granite-hued bone.

  • 5/5 江戸川ドリアン 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Even though it is very close to the road, a superb view appears in about 5 minutes. You will want to cross the bridge, but when you cross it you can see the waterfall from above, but it is a 50-minute course. You can be satisfied just by walking along the river. (Original) 道路からすぐ近いにもかかわらず5分ほどで絶景があらわれる。 橋をわたりたくなるが、渡ると上方から滝を見ることができるが50分コース。 川沿いを歩くだけでも満足できる。

  • 4/5 TAKA S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I'm not saying what I like, but I was healed. There are many souvenir shops nearby and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the parking lot there. (Original) 特に何がいいと言うわけではありませんが癒されました。近隣にはたくさんのお土産屋もありそこの駐車場から歩いて10分かからないくらいです。

    Snow was extremely small this winter resulting in smaller amount of river water. So the waterfalls weren't as dinamic as it was a year ago. Visitors were also in number too.

    (Translated by Google) Fukiware Falls ❤️ It's a place I've been to several times ✨ ✨ The photo is from November 2020. It was a time when the autumn leaves were very beautiful. The weather is sunny 💕 It is a place where you can get natural energy with plenty of negative ions 💧💦 After all, the season of autumn leaves is especially good. Also, I don't know if it's only for autumn, but I was selling fluffy potatoes. I like sweet potatoes, so I bought it without hesitation 🍠 This was really delicious again. It warmed my cold hands and heart and made me feel warm 💕💕 It was windy and really cold, but I had a great time. It is a little difficult to walk at your feet, so it is recommended to wear shoes, sneakers, etc. that you are accustomed to walking 👟✨✨ (Original) 吹割の滝です❤️ 何度か足を運んでいる場所です✨✨ 写真は2020年11月のものです。 紅葉がとても綺麗な時期でした。 天気も晴れ💕 マイナスイオンがたっぷりで自然のエネルギーをもらいまくれる場所です💧💦 やはり、紅葉の季節は特にいいですね。 あと、秋限定かわかりませんがふかし芋を販売していました。 さつまいも好きな私は迷わず購入🍠 これがまたものすごーーーくおいしかったです。 冷えた手元とこころを温めほっこりとさせてくれました💕💕 風が強くて本当に寒かったですが最高の時間を過ごせました。 足元は少し歩きづらいところがあるので歩き慣れたくつ、スニーカーなどで行くことをオススメします👟✨✨

    (Translated by Google) Fukiware Falls appears as you go through a valley full of negative ions (it feels like). A healing spot where you can feel the mystery of nature. It's a type of waterfall that overlooks the flow of water and has a unique atmosphere. (Original) マイナスイオンが充満している(ような気がする)渓谷を進み、現れる吹割の滝。自然の神秘を身近に感じることができる癒しスポット。 水の流れを見下ろすタイプの滝で他とは違う趣がありますね。
