溫泉 (3)

What are the spring qualities and characteristics of Kawayu Onsen?

This is a rare hot spring where the source wells up from the riverbed. The Otao River has such abundant hot spring water that if you dig into the riverbed, hot water springs forth. Since the source continuously wells up, the hot spring water is always flowing. It is known as one of the Kumano Hongu Hot Spring villages (along with Yunomine and Watase).

Do you have a private open-air bath?

We have a private open-air bath with a bed-style bath (neyuyu). It is especially popular with couples and families. Please contact the facility for details.

What is the winter attraction "Sennin Buro"?

From December to February each year, a giant open-air bath is set up on the riverbed of the Otao River. Fujiya, one of the oldest ryokans in Kawayugonsen hot spring, is the closest ryokan to Sennin Buro, and some rooms offer views of it.
