- Fresh Greenery Season (May–June): Visit to enjoy the stunning contrast between the lush green leaves and the clear stream.
- Autumn Foliage Season (October): The entire stream is enveloped in vibrant colors, creating a highly photogenic landscape.

- Early Morning Walks: Not only does this help you avoid crowds, but it also offers a chance to witness the mystical scenery of morning mist and sunlight filtering through the trees.
- Trekking Course: Plan a route from Kaminokuchi to Yakeyama (approx. 4 hours) to experience all the major waterfalls and landmarks.
