A landing area on the Oze side of a tour boat (Ozeguchi flights are reserved) that operates Okudadami Lake. Only a small pier is provided near the mouth of the river where the Tadami River turns into Lake Okudami. When you climb the thin road leading from the pier and get to the paved road along the lake shore, there is a stop for the reserved bus to Oike/Numayama Pass.

Along the paved road, the site of the Yinzan Mineway is also seen nearby, and the Yinzan Reservation Tower beyond.

It enters the road between the faint dark forests from the branch of the Danyoshi Shindo. Go up and down the slushy road and go down the wide wooden ladder to the smooth waterfall observatory. Peering below from the observation deck, which is stacked with large boulders, you can see the smooth-walling waterfall, which runs down as it glides slowly in white waves for roughly 500m over the granite monolith. It's more like a fast water than a waterfall. It takes a 20-minute walk from the branch to Danyoshi Shindo to the smooth waterfall.

It flows down a head of 72.8m at a stretch, and you can enjoy a lively landscape in contrast to the smooth waterfall. It is said that the name came from the fact that when the amount of water was small, it became a waterfall of three streaks and flowed down. It is 35 minutes from the Uruno Falls Observation Deck. If you climb down a slushy road and go to a branch with the road towards Oike, you will drop the altitude at once from there and go down the steep ladder steps with chains. Furthermore, when you descend to the observation deck that overhangs the Tadami River, a large waterfall with a rich amount of water appears in front of you, and you can enjoy a powerful view.
