Minoh falls in Minoh, Osaka , Japan
user:Hiroyuki0904 · Public domain · Wikimedia Commons
The north-Osaka waterfall, up the stream from Minoh Station. Crowded in maple season. Katsuo-ji is the same north line later or another day — do not return to Umeda for more.
Best time
Morning or dusk. Cherry and maple seasons are their own crowds.
How to go
The Hankyu Mino-o Line ends at Minoh. Walk the gorge; the falls are about 30–40 minutes, depending on your legs. ICOCA usually taps local trains. An Osaka Metro day pass covers neither private rail nor JR. Limited express follows that day's notice.
Tips
- · The north-Osaka waterfall, up the stream from Minoh Station. Crowded in maple season. Katsuo-ji is the same north line later or another day — do not return to Umeda for more.
- · Autumn foliage is crowded. The gorge stones are slippery — postpone in rain. ICOCA taps Hankyu. A Metro day pass does not reach it.
