About

Yamanobe Onsen Hoyo Center is a municipal day-use bathhouse fed by two separate hot springs, kept in separate tubs so bathers can choose a hotter soak or a milder one. The baths also include an open-air rotenburo with seasonal scenery, a sauna, a cold bath, and utaseyu (打たせ湯), a waterfall bath that runs straight off the spring. A restaurant and a shop sit next to the bathing hall, and the place has the feel of a neighborhood spot, quiet and used by locals, rather than a tourist stop.
