A sodium-calcium chloride spring served at 44.3 °C — among the hotter natural sources in the region. Weakly alkaline and soft on the skin, with 62.7 mg/kg of metasilicic acid leaving a faint silica film. The water carries a light yellow-brown tint at the source, a salty tang on the lips and a mild mineral note. Delivered straight to the tubs as untreated source flow — no dilution, heating, recirculation or disinfection.

Radon spring in Kumano. Very cozy, beautiful, hot (kakenagashi, 44.7 degrees). Colorless and odorless, but the taste (according to the description) is slightly bitter-salty. Sitting is hot but pleasant. Outside there's a regular bath, a lying bath, and a deep standing bath (96 cm). Inside is just a hot bath. Azaleas were blooming beautifully (already finished now). Especially nice in winter. Asked about tattoos at the entrance, got an uncertain "probably fine" (seems like nobody had asked before). You can conclude that tattoos are most likely OK, there's no outright ban, but no official tattoo-friendly policy either. Besides the water composition sign, there's a proud sign about "we used local wood." And they sell milk in glass bottles.
