Hiryu Falls

Hidden deep in the forested mountains of Hakone, Hiryu Falls is one of the region's largest waterfalls, featuring a dramatic two-tiered cascade resembling a flying dragon. Reaching this serene, moss-covered rocky gorge requires a moderately challenging hike along the historic Hatajuku trail. It is highly rewarding for nature lovers seeking a tranquil, lush escape far away from the typical tourist crowds.
