Shiraito Falls

Falling water, rocks and moss
Water that looks like silk strings falls over rocks and moss. That's how Shiraito Falls is created. It looks so beautiful that you can watch the waterfall for a long time as it soothes your eyes and senses. Especially the crystal clear water against the green moss creates a mystical, breathtaking view.

Illumination on summer nights
Every year, one month in summer, Shiraito Falls are illuminated along with projection mapping (Karuizawa, Shiraito no taki Illusion). In 2015, it was registered as a "Night Illumination National Treasure." It became a popular spot now. The waterfalls look very different at night.

Waterfall and beautiful autumn leaves
In fall, the white strings of the waterfall look even more wonderful amidst the warmth of autumn leaves. There is a perfect spot dedicated for taking pictures, so make sure to click away to remember this moment. On sunny days, the sunlight shines on the waterfall and autumn leaves from 9 to 10 o'clock in the morning. This time of the day is less crowded and perfect for visiting in peace.
