[Utoro Onsen in Shari, Shiretoko] Day Trip Onsen and Tourism Can Be Enjoyed

Yuhidai-no-Yu

Yuhidai-no-Yu located on a hill is a public bath, and opens a business only in a summer from June to October. There is the Shiretoko National Campsite that is famous for enjoying the beautiful setting sun near a building. The visitors are almost campsite users, and the pabulic bath is crowded with them during summer vacation in particular. An entrance fee to the bath facility is JPY 500. There are a resting place and a coin laundry at the building.

A public bathhouse is not so large. There are 1 open-air bath surrounded by rocks and 1 indoor bath at the bathhouse. The each baths are the size that about 5 people can take a bath. Trees disturbed my view from the open-air bath, so unfortunately it was not good. I barely saw the Oronko rock and the sunset.

The hot springs are sodium chloride carbonated spring, and are clear and light yellow and have salty taste and no smell. A sum total of hot spring ingredients are 8.700 g/kg. When I took a bath in the hot springs, I felt smooth and slippery touch. As for the slippery touch, the indoor bath was stronger than the open-air bath. The hot springs seemed to be drinkable, but I could not find a drinking facility. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the bathhouse. A restroom is installed at a dressing room.

Shiretoko Village

Shiretoko Village is a middle-sized onsen ryokan founded in 1985 on a hill, and is a sister onsen ryokan with the Kokuminshukusha Katsurada, and is away from the center of the Utoro Onsen, so convenience stores and restaurants are not build around here. They have 4 buildings, Main Building, Annex Building, New Building and Onsen Building, and are adjacent to shiretoko HOSTEL hanare. The Shiretoko Village is well-known for enjoying 100% natural free flowing hot springs. An entrance fee to the bath facility is JPY 600.

There are 2 indoor baths at a public bathhouse named "Kuma-no-Yu" (大浴場「熊の湯」). The public bathhouse is not large, but bathers may feel relaxed. Each indoor baths that about 5 people take a bath are beside windowws. A hot spring gushing point is at the hot indoor bath, and hot springs flow to warm indoor bath through a partition panel, and that adjusts the water temperature. White bubles separated from the hot spring ingredients are floated on the surface of the bath, so I think fresh hot springs.

By all rights, bathers can enjoy seeing overflowing hot springs from baths, but that day I visited here was a cleaning day, so they drained the indoor baths. In addition, My visited hour was before openning hour. But they were allow to let me take a bath before business hour, so the baths were not filled with hot springs. Anyway, the hot springs were very comfortabl. A local old man that arrived later also looked comfortable.

The hot springs are sodium chloride carbonated spring, and are slightly opaque and light Khaki color and have salty taste and metallic odor. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 8.970 g/kg. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the bathhouse. Hair dryers are set at a dressing room. Because there is not a restroom at a dressing room, you should get a wash beforehand at the restroom along a corridor. A cold water dispenser is also set at a corridor.

Hotel kifuu Club Shireotko

The Hotel kifuu Club Shireotko is a 2-story small-sized hotel founded in 1997 along National Route 334. The Sea of Okhotsk and the coast can be seen from the building. They are a little away from the center of the Utoro Onsen, and are close to Shiretoko Kaigan Shokudo (知床海岸食堂) and Fisherman's restaurants Kaniya (漁師の店 かにや). Their building covered with wood walls has large windows, and the stylish appearance of the building catches people's eyes. They also have a wood deck. A sign board "Visitors can take a day trip onsen" is built along the raod, so I guess that a day trip onsen is available. But I do not know the details.

They have sex-segregated public bathrooms and private open-air baths at the site. But I guess that the private open-air baths are only for hotel guests. The sex-segregated public bathrooms were renewed in 2016, and look new. There is 1 tiled indoor bath at the public tiled bathroom, and the indoor bath is the size that about 3 people can take a bath.

The hot springs are sodium chloride carbonated spring, and are slightly opaque and light Khaki color and have salty taste and metallic odor. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 8.970 g/kg. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the public bathroom. A hair dryer are set at a dressing room.
