Senpiro Falls
千尋の滝Kagoshima · Kyushu
Senpiro Falls drops about 60 metres down the side of a steep valley on Yakushima, and is seen from an observation platform across the gorge rather than from the foot of the fall. Viewing is free. Reaching it means a ferry from Kagoshima to Yakushima, then a car or bus to the trailhead and a 15 to 30 minute walk.
