💡 Tips for Visitors

Best visited from late April to November as winter access is closed due to heavy snow. The trail to the waterfall takes about 15 minutes from the parking area but can be slippery, so wear proper hiking shoes. Limited English signage is available, so download offline maps beforehand, and note that facilities are basic with no shops nearby.
