Overflow at Chinda Falls Resumes
Chinda Falls, located in Bungo-Ono, Oita Prefecture on Kyushu.
Waterfall flow had been stopped for construction since October 2024, but construction is complete and overflow resumed on May 21, 2025.

Further construction will require another temporary stoppage of the waterfall. We will share details as they become available.
Please be careful when visiting Chinda Falls for sightseeing.

■Upcoming Construction Schedule
Water flow will be stopped again from June onward
From September onward, improvement work is scheduled for Chinda Falls Fureai Park (the park will be completely closed during construction)

■About Chinda Falls
Chinda Falls consists of the male waterfall spanning the main stream of the Ono River and the female waterfall on the Hirai River tributary. The male waterfall is about 100 meters wide and approximately 20 meters high. The ink-wash painter Sesshū, active during the Muromachi period, visited here and painted "Chinda Waterfall." Remains of a power plant built in the Meiji era also remain.
