A valley in southern Ehime Prefecture, spanning Uwajima City and Matsuno Town in Kitauwa County. It is located in the upper reaches of the Meguro River (a tributary of the Shimanto River) which originates on the eastern foot of Mt. Onigajo (1,151 meters), and stretches for 12 kilometers with an elevation difference of 900 to 300 meters. Biotite granite intrudes into the Mesozoic Shimanto Group, creating deep abysses and Nameri Falls, where water falls like a cloth. Falls such as Kirigataki, Senjojiki, Sannonameri, Okusenjo, and Yukiwa Falls run in succession through the virgin forest. There are also hotels and campsites.
