Kamiyu onsen

619. Kamiyu Onsen Kawara no Yu, Kamiyu Onsen, Totsukawa, Nara ★★★ Onsen for 500 (free for Kamiyuso guests). Operating hours stated as 09:00 to 17:00 (closed Thursdays). They stamp the 88 Onsen of Wakayama booklet. The large outdoor bath was available for men; for women - a smaller semi-open-air bath upstairs. Large outdoor bath with a stunning view of the river and forest. On the other bank there was a tree uprooted with its roots exposed. At the edge of the bath there's a path down to the river. Clear water with mineral fragments (both small ones and some larger chunks). Proper sulfurous onsen smell. Occasional sand particles. 42-42.5 degrees. Amazing place and a must-visit when traveling near the Wakayama-Nara border. 16.06.2025
