Hiji Falls
比地大滝Okinawa
Hiji Falls is the tallest waterfall on Okinawa's main island, a 26-metre drop at the end of a 1.5km forest trail through the Yambaru subtropical woodland. The path climbs steadily on boardwalks and steps and crosses a suspension bridge high over the gorge, and the round trip takes roughly 90 minutes at an unhurried pace. The trailhead sits inside the Hiji campground, where the entrance gate controls access to the whole route.
