Part 3
After what felt like 10,000 steps through the Seven Falls Gorge, I treated myself to a Sakura Taiyaki as a reward. And to soothe my feet, I used the public onsen/foot bath at a pleasant 43°C.

Part 1
From the Kawazuzakura Matsuri I went up the hills to the Kawazu Nanadaru (河津七滝).
Kawazu Nanadaru are seven waterfalls in the mountains above Kawazu Town in southeastern Izu.

More than 2 hours on foot for one direction

Passing by the Spiral Bridge (cars going in circles to get over the hill).
