After admiring the spectacular cascading waterfall, we climbed the stairs to the top...

While there was no hot spring water flowing, the smell of hot springs permeated the area.

The impressive Yutaki Falls drop point allows you to look down on the falls from directly above!

An observation terrace has been built to safely enjoy the view.
The view from here is simply spectacular!

A landscape of mountains and forests - a flurry of falling snow

Lake Yunoko is a dammed lake formed at an elevation of approximately 1,500 meters.
The surrounding mountains are reflected on the lake's surface,
creating a mystical atmosphere,
but visibility was poor and I couldn't see.

It's a shame the autumn leaves weren't in perfect condition to enjoy them.
