Valley Spots in Tokushima Area

Area

  • Iya Valley
    Travel / Tourism
    Tokushima Pref. Miyoshishi Ikedachoumatsuo - Nishiyanyama Village
    One of Japan’s three hidden valleys, Iya is a steep valley spreading out at the foot of the Shikoku Mountains. The perfectly formed V-shape valley and majestic landscape with the emerald green of the Iya River weaving its way along the valley floor are sights worth seeing. In autumn it is known as a picturesque spot for the viewing of colorful autumn foliage due to the way in which the whole valley side turns red from the valley floor to the top. Perched up high on a cliff above the Iya River is the Statue of a Peeing Boy, said to be where children and travelers to the region would see who is the bravest while standing on this precarious rock.

  • Oboke and Koboke
    Travel / Tourism
    Tokushima Pref. Miyoshishi Yamashirochoushigezane - First name
    Oboke and Koboke are great valleys created by the erosion of the Yoshino River running through the Shikoku Mountains. The strangely shaped rocks chiseled over time, the lush green forest and natural beauty of the clear stream meandering along the valley floor are sights to behold. The valleys were designated a National Natural Monument in 2014. Activities such as boat trips and rafting, as well as sightseeing train tours and sightseeing buses are also recommended things to do here.

  • Hinoji Valley
    Travel / Tourism
    Tokushima Pref. Miyoshishi Nishiyayamamuratanouchi
    "A valley located in Iya, counted as one of three most secluded areas in Japan. ""Hinoji"" means ""the character of hi"" and is derived from the section of the beautiful Iya River which flows here in the shape of the Japanese hiragana character ""hi."" Also a renowned destination for viewing fall foliage, in autumn the entire valley, from the floor to the top of the surrounding peaks, becomes covered in spectacular color. Be sure to check out the Mannekin Pis statue and the ""Kazurabashi Yumebutai"" tourist facility."

  • Oboke Gorge
    Travel / Tourism
    Tokushima Pref. Miyoshishi Yamashirochounishiu district
    "Located approximately 35 minutes from the Otoyo Interchange on the Kochi Expressway or the Ikawa-Ikeda Interchange on the Tokushima Expressway, this V-shaped valley was formed by rapid erosion of the rocks in the upper reaches of the Yoshino River. It is a scenic spot with exposed rock formations on both sides of the river, and is designated as a natural monument in Tokushima Prefecture. You can enjoy the magnificent scenery created over 200 million years by listening to explanations from boatmen going downstream on sightseeing boats year-round. In the spring, you can see light purple ""rock azaleas"" and other flowers that grow between the white rocks, and the fresh greenery and autumn leaves are also beautiful."
