Hot Springs Gush Out from Lakeshore -Suna-Yu Onsen around Lake Kussharo-

Suna-Yu (砂湯) has a camping ground located in the center of the Lake Kussharo (屈斜路湖). Because hot springs spring out if tourists dig sand on the shore of the lake, the tourists make a bathtub with sand freely and can take a bath in swimsuits. But the hot springs are cold depending on places. At the site, there are a camping ground, a restroom, a stall, swan boats for hire. Whooper swans are able to be seen in a winter, and many tourists come to watch those, too. Admission free. A parking lot is free of charge.
