Kotan-no-Yu

An open-air bath at the same level as Lake Kussharo, integrated with the lake

An open-air bath nestled on the shores of Lake Kussharo, featuring a bath facing the lake with an overwhelming sense of openness.

The water surface of the bath is set at nearly the same level as Lake Kussharo's surface, creating a sensation as if you're immersed in the lake itself. From the bath separated by large rocks, you can monopolize the magnificent view of Lake Kussharo spreading before you. At dusk, the lake surface is dyed golden, and a luxurious time flows as you watch the sky's changing colors moment by moment while soaking in the warm water. The hot spring water is rich in metasilicic acid.

In winter, you can see swans that fly to the lake up close. The sight of white-feathered swans floating on the lake surface while snow piles up is a spectacular view unique to Hokkaido. Known as a hidden hot spring, this place delivers a special hot spring experience where you can fully feel unity with nature.
