串本町・マップ103:堀切の滝
串本町の津荷川に存在する落差約4mの滝です。河道を変えるために、現在滝を形成している岩盤(熊野層群の泥岩)を掘削した人工の滝です。いつ頃の工事なのか定かではありませんが、遅くとも明治の中頃にはできていたと考えられています。
It is a waterfall with a head of about 4m that exists in the Tsuga River in Kushimoto Town. It is an artificial waterfall made by excavating the bedrock (mudstone of the Kumano Group) that is currently forming the waterfall in order to change the river channel. It is not certain when the construction will be done, but it is believed that it was completed by the middle of the Meiji era at the latest.
