The fantastical Nakatsu Gorge

Located just over an hour from Kochi City by car, Nakatsu Gorge is one of our favorite places to feel the power and grace of nature. We particularly love the gentle 2.3-km trail that takes you over little bridges and steppingstones along crystal blue waters. If you’re traveling with children, you can play a game to spot the stone statues of the shichifukujin (Seven Gods of Fortune) dotted along the way!

Surrounded by enormous moss-covered rocks from over 300 million years ago, you might feel like you’re in a Ghibli movie (and Totoro might just pop out of the trees)!
