PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique capable of evaluating a fall risk easily and with high accuracy. SOLUTION: A fall risk evaluation method in a fall risk evaluation device 1 for evaluating a fall risk based on a subject's walking motion acquires walking data related to the subject's walking, and from the walking data, a stance phase of one leg of the subject. Vertical displacement of the subject's waist in, the vertical displacement of the subject's waist in the swing phase of one leg, the angle of the knee joint of one leg in the stance phase, and the ankle joint of one leg in the swing phase. Detects at least one of the angles and at least one of the vertical displacement of the hips during the stance phase, the vertical displacement of the hips during the swing phase, the knee joint angle during the stance phase and the ankle joint angle during the swing phase. To determine the subject's fall risk using. [Selection diagram] Fig. 1
