Ojirogawa Valley is a beautiful valley created by the Ojiro River flowing at the foot of Mount Komagatake in the Southern Alps, located in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture. It is characterized by its clear, pure water, which has been selected as one of the 100 famous waters of Japan. The scenery created by the emerald-green water surface, huge rocks, and scattered waterfalls and suspension bridges attracts visitors. In particular, it is a popular spot for hiking enthusiasts and tourists seeking nature, as it has a well-maintained promenade and allows you to enjoy the beauty of the valley relatively easily.
The greatest attraction of this valley is the beauty of its water and the varied scenery. Various waterfalls are scattered throughout the valley, including Jinja Falls, which has a beautiful emerald-green waterfall basin, and Fudo Falls, which changes its appearance depending on the angle from which you view it, and each waterfall shows a different expression. You can also experience the thrill of crossing the suspension bridge, and the promenade where you can walk while listening to the murmuring of the clear stream and the chirping of the birds is an exquisite space where you can refresh both body and mind with the beautiful scenery of the four seasons.
