Hot Spring Hotel Located in Highest Place in Hokkaido -Tokachidake Onsen in Kamifurano-

Yumoto Ryounkaku

Ryounkaku is a hot-spring ryokan located in the highest place at 1280 m above sea level in Hokkaido. It was founded in 1963 and was named Ryounkaku meaned a building exceeding clouds. Because bathers can look over Tokachidake Mountain Range from an open-air bath, and a view is splendid. Many visitors visit here to see fall foliage in a autumn. Their brochure is introduced to be the open-air bath on the clouds.

The Ryounkaku is famous for having 2 types of hot springs. One is acidic iron aluminum and calcium sulfate spring, and is clear and colorless and has bitter and sour taste and no smell. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 1.631 g (It has 893 g of ion sulfate). The other is calcium and sodium sulfate spring, and is opaque and reddish brown and has a little metallic taste and metallic smell. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 2.084 g (It has 943 g of ion sulfate).

There are 1 open-air bath, 2 indoor baths, 1 cold bath and 1 sauna at a bathhouse. At first about the open-air bath, the view of the Tokachidake Mountain Range was too splendid! Because there was not an obstruction in my view, I could enjoy a sence of openness. There was a two‐layer structure bathtub that approximately 10 people take a bath. The upper bathtub had hot springs and the lower buthtub had warm springs. Those were red-brown hot springs. Graduations of color were different at the upper bathtub and the lower buthtub, too.

Successively about the indoor baths, a large rock was put at the bathhouse, and there were 2 baths that the hot springs were clear and colorless or opaque and reddish brown. There was the bathtub with water-clear hot spring behind a rock quietly. It was the small bathtub that approximately 4 people take a bath. Because the hot springs seemed to be drinkable and I drank it, it was sour taste such as tonic water. I liked it. It seemed to be effective for Chronic digestive diseases, Anemia, Chronic cholecystitis, Cholelithiasis, Chronic constipation, Obesity disease, Diabetes and Gout.

There was the bathtub with red-brown hot spring that approximately 8 people take a bath. A mossed rock looked like a nature rock. Because the hot springs seemed to be drinkable, too, and I drank it, it was soil-like taste. I was not able to drink this a lot. This seemed to be effective for Chronic cholecystitis, Cholelithiasis, Chronic constipation, Obesity disease, Diabetes and Gout. Other bathtubs used hot water not hot springs. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the bathhouse. In addition, a restroom and free hair dryers are installed at a dressing room, too. A staying is possible, too.
