1026-Nanakura Dam

Can you be a man of character? An iron-clad rock-fill dam. Nanakura Dam is located further upstream from Omachi Dam. It is quite a large rockfill dam, and you can get a sense of its size by looking up at it from directly below the embankment. / Rockfill dam / 125m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1032-Omachi Dam / Nagano Pref.

The dam is located just before the "Ogisawa" approach to the Kurobe Dam. This area is a tourist attraction, and there are many things to see and do. Omachi Dam is also a "show" dam, but there are relatively few visitors, perhaps because of the rain. / Gravity concrete dam / 107m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1031-Uchimura Dam

This dam is located near Kakeyu Hot Spring. The Uchimura Dam is located near Kakeyu Onsen, which is famous for its therapeutic baths, and where we stayed when we covered the Kurobe Dam. Perhaps it was because the weather was not so good, but I got the impression that it was very dark. It looked like something was about to come out. / Gravity Concrete Dam / 51.3m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1009-yamaguchi dam

Yamaguchi Dam is located along Route 19. I wanted to stop by the embankment and photograph it from the side, but there was so much traffic and so many cars speeding that it was ridiculed as if it were a highway, so I photographed from the bridge across from the embankment. / Gravity Concrete / 38.6m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1168-Hatanagi Daiichi Dam

The twilight-colored embankment makes one imagine the world of Hades. When we reached the Hatanagi No. 1 Dam, the surroundings were completely tinted in twilight, and we were finally at the end of our tour of dams on the Oigawa River system. The dam tour of the Oigawa River system finally comes to an end. The dusk-colored embankment makes me imagine the world of Hades. I wonder if I'll ever go to the other side of the world to see a dam. / Hollow gravity concrete dam / 125m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

0975-Fukashiro Dam

A dam where you can meet thick humanity and bees. Fukashiro Dam.

Yamanashi Prefecture Dam

3107-Kazuno River Dam

The chalk dam at the end of the tunnel. The Kuzuno River Dam. It was very quiet and secluded. The dam was built using rock from excavation during the construction of tunnels and underground power plants as aggregate, making it an environmentally friendly dam deep in the mountains. / Gravity concrete dam / 105.2m

Yamanashi Prefecture Dam

3106-Kami-hikawa Dam

Upper dam for pumped storage power generation. The effective drop-off between the lower dam and the upper dam is the largest in the world! Moreover, it is the dam with the best view of Mt. Kamihigawa Dam.

Yamanashi Prefecture Dam

0969-Amahata Dam

The dam is owned by a private company called Nippon Light Metal Co. Nevertheless, this view from just below the embankment is very satisfying. Since the downstream is quiet and there are no waves, the embankment is reflected in the water like a mirror. The contrast is truly wonderful. It is a long way to go, but it is well worth the effort. / Arch dam / 80.5m

Yamanashi Prefecture Dam

1167-Hatanagi No.2 Dam

Tennozan Dam on the Oigawa River. It is endlessly far away. And the road is endlessly bad. Therefore, driving fatigue reaches its peak when you reach here, so if you feel even a little tired, be sure to take a break! Since the road is not connected, you will have to make a U-turn at the Hatanagi No. 1 Dam ahead. You will have to return to the rough road you just came from, so you need to be prepared for that when you get here. You are on your own no matter what happens... / Hollow gravity concrete dam / 69m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1178-Nagashima Dam

A chalk residence under direct state control, open to the community! As a "dam open to the community," the Nagashima Dam is more open than most dams. I knew the name of the Nagashima Dam, but I had not done much research beforehand, so I had no idea that it was so full of sights. I would recommend that you allow plenty of time for your visit. / Gravity concrete dam / 109m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

0000-Nagashima Sand Dam

Nagashima Reservoir is a dam that you can see only if you ride Minami-Alps Aputo-line of Oigawa river railroad. But there are seats for river side and mountain side, so it is best to sit in the seat for river side. I was on the mountain side both on the way out and on the way back.... The best option is to go outside of the holiday season. / Gravity Concrete Dam

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1161-Okuizumi Dam

Chirarism Dam. Like the Oigawa Dam and the Sunmatagawa Dam, the road and the embankment were far apart as far as the map showed, so I had half given up looking at the Okuizumi Dam from a rule of thumb. However, on the way from Nagashima Dam to Igawa Dam, we suddenly found a sign that read "Okuizumi Dam ↓" and decided to go down the slope anyway, even though it was a suspicious slope... / Gravity concrete dam / 44.5m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1162-Ikawa Dam

Oigawa Cathedral "Igawa Dam". The Igawa Dam is the first hollow gravity concrete dam in Japan and the second-highest embankment dam of its type after the Hatanagi No. 1 Dam. / Hollow gravity concrete / 103.6m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1153-Oigawa Dam

A small but well-lit dam. We covered the Oigawa Dam after the "3rd Dam Web Ring Playboy Off-line Meeting - Goro-chan's Stomach Exploration Tour" was over. We were not able to make this dam come true during our previous coverage of the Oigawa River system, but thanks to our site's customers and the participants of the off-line meeting, we were able to photograph it this way. / Gravity concrete dam / 33.5m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1157-Sakaigawa Dam

Either you want us to see it or you don't want us to see it! And the dam is off-limits inside the top end, which is a bit half-baked. / Gravity Concrete / 34.2m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

0000-Shiogo Dam

This river flow is very important for local residents in terms of preventing desertification of the river. And a small but important dam (weir). / Gravity concrete dam / 3.2m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1166-Sasama River Dam

Kawane hot springs and a roadside station are nearby dams where you can see the SL of Oigawa Railway. Maybe a footbath after a stroll would be nice. This dam is used for power generation by Chubu Electric Power Company, and water taken from the Shiogo Dam on the main stream of the Oigawa River also flows here. / Gravity concrete dam / 46.35m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1170-Harano valley river dam

A working "dry dam" to control flooding. However, there was plenty of water, perhaps because it was the season of melting snow. I would have liked to see a dry dam, but the dam was functioning well. / Gravity concrete dam / 31m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1174-Funaki Dam/Funagira Dam

The area around the embankment has been turned into an athletic park. It is a small dam, but a picnic with like-minded friends and family is a good idea. The lowest power generation dam of the rampaging Tenryu. / Gravity concrete dam / 24.5m
