If you visit Kawayu Onsen, be sure to enjoy the hot spring experience. There are several hot spring facilities in the area, each with its own characteristics. Among them, the facilities that offer day-trip bathing allow you to enjoy the rich sulfur spring water. The baths overlook the mountains, and the attraction is that you can feel one with nature. The outdoor open-air baths are especially recommended, and in winter you can spend a luxurious time soaking in the water while watching the falling snow. In the hot spring town, you can't miss the gourmet food that makes use of local ingredients. Especially popular are the local dishes made with vegetables and seafood from Hokkaido. You can enjoy the taste of Hokkaido, such as set meals made with fresh salmon and scallops caught locally, and game dishes made with venison. Another unique experience is the "hot spring steamed cuisine" that uses the waters of Kawayu Onsen. The vegetables and eggs cooked in the steam from the hot spring have a soft and gentle taste. In addition, cafes and souvenir shops in the hot spring town sell sweets inspired by sulfur springs and ice cream made with local honey. These culinary experiences are sure to become unforgettable memories of your trip. Kawayu Onsen, where hot springs, nature, and gourmet food come together, is a spot where you can enjoy the charms of Japan to the fullest.
