Located at the scenic entrance to the remote Iya Valley, Oboke Gorge showcases millennia of natural erosion sculpted by the turbulent waters of the Yoshino River. Translating fittingly to "big dangerous steps," this dramatic canyon features steep, jagged rock walls that create a striking contrast against the turquoise river below. Visitors can take in the breathtaking views aboard relaxing riverboat cruises or gaze down from scenic viewpoints and train rides along the canyon edge. Pairing seamlessly with neighboring Koboke Gorge, it offers one of Shikoku's most awe-inspiring and timeless natural landscapes.
