Kuroyama Santaki Falls

黒山三滝

Saitama · Kanto

Three waterfalls sit in a shaded Ogose valley with small shrines and retro mountain shops nearby. The walk is short, cool, and atmospheric after rain.

Why we picked it

It is tucked behind Ogose, away from the better-known Chichibu and Nagatoro routes.
