中津溪谷

Nakatsu Gorge is a gorge in Niyodogawa town, Agawa District, Kochi Prefecture, on a tributary of the Niyodo River. It is one of the places where visitors can see the clear blue-green water known as Niyodo blue, which shifts in shade with the sunlight. A walking trail of about 1.3 kilometres round trip follows the river past smaller cascades to Uryu Falls, where water drops around 20 metres into a pool below. The path is maintained and suitable for casual walkers. Entry to the gorge is free. There is limited parking at the entrance, with more spaces at the former Nanokawa elementary school nearby. Access is easiest by car, with buses available from Sakawa Station.
