Only 30 minutes train journey from the center of Osaka is the Mino Waterfalls. This spot of amazing natural beauty lies on a small river nestled against the edge of the mountains. A winding pathway leads up the river from the town of Mino occasionally passing small shops and old buildings and passing through several different types of forest.
As a protected wildlife area there are apparently a lot of monkeys around which according to the many signs you should not encourage or feed. We didn't see any monkeys but we did see a deer, lots of spiders, praying mantis and a few HUGE koi fish.
