Fed by Kusatsu's Yubatake source, this is strongly acidic water at pH 2.0 — sharp enough to prickle on contact. The posted name reads acidic, sulfur-bearing aluminium-sulfate-chloride: free hydrogen sulfide at 13 mg/kg carries the characteristic rotten-egg note, while aluminium and sulfate give the water a firm, astringent body across roughly 1.7 g/kg of dissolved minerals. Metasilicic acid runs high at 230 mg/kg, leaving the thin silica film that smooths skin after such a sharp bath. The usage panel states no heating, no recirculation and no disinfection — water is diluted only when the incoming flow is too hot after the daily cleaning.

802. Osakaya Ryokan, Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma I went for a day visit for ¥1,000. Day visits are listed from 13:00 to 16:00. 1. Indoor bath. The water is clear, temperature 44. Breathing inside is manageable. 2. Small outdoor bath. View of the stonework. The water is clear, and there is lime at the bottom near the source outlet. Temperature 43.5. There is a large beam for stirring the water. 14.01.2026
