The Atera Seven Falls are located on the Atera branch of the Toyokawa River within the Tenryū-Okumikawa Quasi-National Park. As the river flows down from the Nasuyama Plateau, it crosses a conglomerate fault scarp composed of middle and Paleozoic rock gravel such as sandstone, mudstone and granite. The falls are broken into a series of composed of middle and Paleozoic rock gravel such as sandstone, mudstone and granite. The first waterfall has a height of 9 meters from the bottom. The second is 13 meters, the third is 7 meters, the fourth waterfall is 25 meters, the fifth waterfall is 2 meters, the sixth waterfall is 4 meters, the seventh waterfall is 2 meters, for a total length of 62 meters over a drop in elevation of 26 meters.

The force of the falling water has created basins at the base of each fall, especially the second waterfall, which has a depth of 4 meters and the fifth fall which has a depth of 7 meters.

According to legend, a young onmyōji Abe no Seimei named this waterfall when he came here to meditate during the early Heian period.
