An alkaline simple sulfur cold-mineral spring that carries a faint rotten-egg note of hydrogen sulfide at the source, with fine white suspended matter. Its high pH gives the slippery feel of the Japanese beauty-water family, and as a cold-mineral source below 25 °C it is reheated for bathing.

About

An inn on the bank of the Inunaki river (犬鳴川), in the wooded valley that counts as Osaka's only hot-spring village. There are open-air baths alongside the indoor ones, filled with a gentle sulfur cold mineral spring, alkaline and soft on the skin. Upstream sits Shipporyuji (七宝瀧寺), a mountain-ascetic temple where people still stand under the waterfalls, and that gives the whole valley a quiet, back-of-beyond feel even though Kansai Airport is about half an hour away.

600. Minamitei, Inunakiyama Onsen, Osaka Visited for higaeri at 1000 yen. Higaeri hours from 11:00 to 21:00. They stamp the Wakayama 88 Onsen book. Staff reacted very positively to the stamp book. 1. Indoor area. A bit stuffy inside. 1.1. Bath with clear water with a soapy feel, slight chlorine smell. Temperature around 41.5°C. 1.2. Utaseyu — not working via button. 1.3. Sauna not working. 2. Outdoor bath. Glass fence spoils the view of the river and forest. Clear water with a soapy feel. Temperature around 41.5°C. 12.06.2025
