The Hijiori Dam (Hijiori Sabo Dam) in Okura Village was built over a period of two years starting in 1950 to protect the hot spring town from landslides along the Dozan River, a part of the Mogami River system.

At the soba restaurant at Hijiori Dam, you can find Hatsukoi Footbath.

The deep greenery surrounding the dam and the soothing sounds of the water will help you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
