Kegon Waterfalls

Kegon Falls — a 97m horsetail waterfall draining Lake Chūzenji in Nikko — offers dramatic vertical compositions, rainbow-filled mist, and strong seasonal color (autumn foliage, winter ice). Best at sunrise or late afternoon for side-light and rainbows; weekdays and early mornings minimize crowds. Accessible via a short walk from the parking lot; a paid elevator leads to a lower observation cave for unique low-angle views. Small entry fee for observation elevator; snow/ice in winter can make walk
