Fresh green can be enjoyed in a summer, and fall foliage can be enjoyed in an autumn, so it is really secret onsen to be able to take a bath while enjoying nature of Hokkaido. Please take a bath after pouring the hot springs on yourself to wash off the sweat and the dirt.

The bath is the size that about 4 people can take a bath, and natural free flowing hot springs gush out from rocks, and overflowing hot springs flow to the river. Because the hot springs are considerably hot, the bathers must regulate water temperature with squirting water from a hose theirselves. By the way, horseflies or black flies may prevent you from relaxing in the summer.

The hot springs are sodium chloride spring, and are opaque and reddish brown and have salty taste and no smell. The bathers can take a bath in wearing swimsuits or with a bath towel covering body. A use of shampoo and soap is prohibited because water of the riber is polluted. Others put clothes, and baggage beside the bath whether it was in danger of the theft at the dressing room.
