Hunbe Falls

Enjoy the beautiful natural formations

Hunbe Falls is located about a 5-minute drive from Hiroo Bridge on Route 336 (commonly known as the Golden Road) towards Erimo. "Hunbe" means "whale-catching beach" in Ainu, named after the whales that used to be stranded in this area. This waterfall is unique as groundwater directly falls beside the road. In summer, it brings coolness, and in winter, it turns into icicles, creating beautiful natural formations. The abundant spring water flows down the rock surface from the top of the coastal cliffs, and in winter, it freezes into magnificent icicles.
