The biggest feature of Sekinoo Falls is the world's largest group of "potholes" that spread out just upstream from the basin. Potholes are holes that are created when stones at the bottom of the river rotate due to the eddy current of the water, carving out a circular shape from the bedrock. The potholes at Sekinoo Falls have been designated as a national natural monument due to their size and beauty. The wide area is dotted with potholes of all sizes, from a few meters in diameter to a few centimeters, and they look like works of art created by nature. This unique landscape is one of the attractions of Sekinoo Falls, and cannot be found anywhere else.
The suspension bridge connecting the waterfall and the potholes allows you to see both at once, making it a popular photo spot. In addition, the surrounding area also offers somen nagashi (summer only), which uses the pure water, and shops selling local specialties, making it a spot where you can enjoy the beauty of nature and the local food culture at the same time.
