Located in the upper reaches of the Kuzuneda River flowing at the southern foot of Mt. Iwate, the valley stretches about 10 km from Genbudo to Takinoue Onsen. A variety of broad-leaved trees, including primeval beech forests, spread throughout the valley, which is especially beautiful in the fresh green and autumn colors. At the end of the valley is Torigoe-no-taki Waterfall, a spectacular 30-meter waterfall that falls from the rock surface into a deep green waterfall basin. During the season of autumn leaves, the area is crowded with many people.
