5 of 5 in Kurokawa Onsen

Oku no Yu (奥の湯) is a long-standing hot spring retreat in Kurokawa Onsen, known for its wide range of gender-separated baths that cater to various preferences. Guests can enjoy features such as a misty steam sauna, an atmospheric cave bath, and several open-air pools overlooking a scenic mountain river. These outdoor baths provide a chance to unwind while listening to the gentle flow of water and soaking in the natural beauty of the surrounding forest. The setting is tranquil and rejuvenating, offering a soothing escape from everyday life.

Its laid-back atmosphere and scenic riverside setting continue to attract both first-time visitors and seasoned onsen enthusiasts seeking a peaceful, no-frills experience in nature.
