Sutama Onsen Wakamirou
Sampled at wellhead
Simple
Classification

Sodium Bicarbonate-Chloride spring

Wakamiro Onsen is a simple thermal spring (hypotonic, neutral, low-temperature), led by sodium with a bicarbonate slant. The wellhead reads 27.7 C, so the water is reheated for bathing. At the source it is colorless and clear with a metallic note; left to stand it picks up a faint yellow tint. A generous 115.9 mg/kg of metasilicic acid leaves the kind of silica film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother afterwards.

589. 若神楼, Hokuto, Yamanashi Visited for higaeri at 1000 yen. Higaeri hours from 15:00 to 21:00. They stamp the Yamanashi 100 Onsen book. They issue Toreco cards for the onsen. Bath photos from the internet roughly match — the outdoor bath was partially blocked, and online photos don't capture it well. Visited in the daytime. 1. Indoor area. Breathing inside is good. 1.1. Large bath with clear water, temperature around 40-41°C. 1.2. Small stone bath with clear water, cold water. As I understood — probably kakenagashi. 2. Outside, a strange stone outdoor bath. View is behind a fence and on surrounding trees. The rotenburo is split by a small wooden partition — the water behind the partition is cold, and technical elements and pipes are visible. In the accessible part, clear water at 37-38°C. 15.05.2025
