Nagano Prefecture Dam1015-Kiso Dam
Are you sure this is the right place! Can we go through! I think we're going to end up at a house! The dam makes you feel uneasy in many ways. / Gravity Concrete / 35.2m

Nagano Prefecture Dam
Nagano Prefecture Dam3321-Makio Dam
My home slope is nearby, and the dam is located at the foot of Mt. It is the source of the Aichi Waterworks and the water reservoir of Aichi. / Rockfill / 104.5m
Nagano Prefecture Dam1032-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 Dam1026-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 Dam1009-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
Shizuoka Prefecture Dam1168-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
Yamanashi Prefecture Dam3107-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 Dam3106-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 Dam0969-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
Shizuoka Prefecture Dam1167-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 Dam1161-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 Dam1162-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 Dam1153-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 Dam1157-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 Dam0000-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 Dam1166-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 Dam1174-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
Shizuoka Prefecture Dam1163-Akiba Dam
The power generation dam on the Tenryu River, which has a suspension bridge downstream and can be viewed directly from the bridge. As for the reading of this dam, some people involved in power supply development read it as "Akiha," while others pronounce it muddled as "Akiba," so which is true.... In the Japan Dam Association's dam handbook, it is "Akiha. Well, let's leave it as "Akiha". / Gravity concrete dam / 89m
Shizuoka Prefecture Dam1171-Misakubo Dam
Abandoned concession stands, dilapidated gates, falling rocks seen everywhere.... The dam is full of danger. The toilets are also in a state of neglect. This desolate atmosphere is a nice touch (heart)! Lonely and abandoned dam! / Rockfill / 105.0m
Shizuoka Prefecture Dam1160-Sakuma Dam
Without this dam, we can't talk about Kurobe Dam! It is a very famous dam. At the time of its construction, it boasted the highest embankment height and the largest amount of electricity generated in Japan. The design of the water intake also has a retro atmosphere. The Sakuma Dam was completed in three years, instead of 10 years, using second-hand large construction equipment imported from the United States. This is also said to be the first of its kind in Japan. / Gravity concrete dam / 155.5m
