Driving course

2002.09 Dam tour day 1 (Mimogi Dam - Sakai River Dam - Tori Dam)

This article can be read in about 2 minutes to read.

This time, we are also going to visit a dam with the purpose of going to see an acquaintance who lives in Kanazawa (who is currently insulated because he caused a serious problem with an incident...).

The route takes the form of a northward trip, so please look at the route from the bottom. The so-called "Shogawa Dam Group" is full of dams that are worth seeing, but many of them do not allow access to the tops of the dams, making the coverage extremely difficult. Also, the roads to the dams off the national highway are narrow, so just getting to them is a challenge.

In particular, the prefectural road to the Ooshirakawa Dam is often closed due to falling rocks, and in the fall of 2003, there was an accident in which a person was left behind by a falling rock (no fatalities or injuries were reported...), so please be careful when visiting.

The time required is taken as a rough estimate, but it may vary considerably since it ignores the time spent in the area. Please consider it as a guide only.
*Touring the dam can be dangerous. Please follow the instructions of road signs and on-site information signs. This site assumes no responsibility for any problems that may occur during the dam tour.
