Fudo Rock is a striking cliff face located in Sounkyo Gorge, part of the Daisetsuzan National Park in Hokkaido. Situated between the Ginga (Milky Way) and Ryusei (Shooting Star) waterfalls, this towering rock formation offers a dramatic view of the gorge's columnar jointing. Visitors can see Fudo Rock from the parking area near the waterfalls, but for a more impressive view, consider climbing to the Sobakudai observation point. The rock's imposing presence and the cascading waterfalls create a stunning contrast, especially during the autumn foliage season. It's a must-see natural landmark when exploring Sounkyo.
