Suwakyo Gorge, located near Minakami Onsen, is a scenic ravine known for its unique rock formations and lush landscapes. A 40-minute walk from Minakami Station, the gorge offers a 3.5km-long trail, though parts are currently closed from Miharashi to Choshi Bridge. Visitors can enjoy views of the Tone River and the surrounding nature, especially beautiful during the autumn foliage season. The area also features the Suwakyo Bridge, famous for bungee jumping, and is close to the Michi-no-Eki Minakami, making it an accessible spot for a refreshing break during your travels.
