Namekawa Valley offers a stunning natural escape in Toon, Ehime Prefecture. Over many years, the flowing water has carved out unique rock formations and smoothed the riverbed, creating a beautiful landscape. Highlights include the 1km-long "Namera" riverbed and the fascinating potholes formed by swirling pebbles. One of the reviews mentions a large rock formation called "Dragon's Belly". It's a great spot for enjoying the autumn foliage or escaping the summer heat. Located a 80-minute bus ride from Matsuyama Station and a 30-minute drive from Kawauchi IC, access is straightforward. Admission is free.
