Ogawa Falls is located in Minamiōsumi, Kagoshima, Japan, the town in the southern tip of the Osumi Peninsula. It is a 46-meter (151-foot) waterfall, 60 meters (197 feet) in extended width, in the midstream of the Ogawa River.
Ogawa Falls had been relatively unknown until 2013 when included its picture in the calendar for the annual free distribution to their customers. It is particularly known for the waterfall basin becoming beautiful emerald green when water is falling in regular, but not big amount.[1]
No public transportation is available. There are two parking areas, one in the upperstream of the waterfall and the other in the downstream, both not far from the Nejime Port of the over Kagoshima Bay between the Satsuma and Osumi Peninsulas. From the downstream parking area, there is a 1.2 km (0.75 mile) hiking trail to the observation deck in front of the waterfall basin.
