Onsen Swings

Discover hot springs with swings — a rare and delightful onsen experience

Some onsen in Japan feature swings (ブランコ, buranko) — usually wooden swings positioned near outdoor baths or on the grounds of hot spring facilities. These swings offer a playful touch to the traditional onsen experience, allowing visitors to gently sway while taking in mountain views, forested valleys, or coastal panoramas.

Onsen swings have become a beloved attraction at a small number of facilities across Japan. These swings combine the joy of a simple thrill with the serenity of natural hot spring surroundings — making for an unforgettable visit.
