♨️ Gunma|May 11, 2026

"Yabakei of the Kanto Region"

Agatsuma Gorge is a beautiful approximately 3km gorge carved by the Agatsuma River through quartz porphyry rock. Called the "Yabakei of the Kanto Region," its rock formations, cliffs, and clear stream create magnificent scenery.

Spectacular Autumn Foliage

The autumn foliage season is especially beautiful, with brilliant colors on the rock walls and canyon scenery. A riverside promenade allows you to savor natural beauty while walking.

Yamba Dam and New Scenery

The nearby "Yamba Dam" has been completed, and its "Yamba Mihodai" lake is gaining attention as a new tourist attraction. Enjoy both the new dam scenery and the traditional gorge scenery together.
