Sukawa Kougen Onsen - Ichinoseki

The building is reasonably old, but there was no problem. Hot springs are good. A very large open air a little away from the outside. The indoor bath was also large and small, but it had a covered open-air bath. The hot water is hot. There was a hot bath with carefully selected temperatures, but I didn't use it because I like lukewarm. You can use the bath at Kurikoma Sanso next door for free, so you can enjoy the hot springs. This hot water was a little loose and I liked it. It is an open-air bath with a nice view and seems to be popular. The meal was also grilled with salted sweetfish, and the main dish was grilled pork, tempura and trout sasa sushi, which was better than I expected. Compared to the three flavors of yakiniku sauce Iwate, Miyagi, and Akita, they were all delicious, so I bought them as souvenirs and went home. In the morning, it was a buffet style on this day, and I was satisfied with the variety of side dishes, mainly Japanese food. The rice and miso soup were delicious, so I didn't complain. If you want to use the day trip hot water after climbing Mt. Kurikoma, you can buy a ticket for 350 yen at check-out. There is also a souvenir shop, and I was surprised that the end of Inaniwa udon was sold in kilograms. This is just the prefectural border between Iwate and Akita. Kurikoma Sanso is in Akita, and Sukawa Kougen Onsen is in Iwate. The photo of the open-air bath was given permission because no one was there.

10/5 (Tue) I went via Ichinoseki / Shinyu ?➰❗️?? The road is narrow everywhere, and when a sightseeing bus ? comes to an oncoming car on a sharp curve, you have to back up! ️?? The autumn leaves are beautiful near the top, and there are quite a few climbers ?? The large open-air bath for 700 yen is large, and the cobalt blue is impressive. Body soap and shampoo are also available ❗️

Hot water is good. Free-flowing from the source. Sulfur spring. Here is the cleanliness that is not called circulation or filtration. There are two facilities, an indoor bath and an open-air bath, but I chose the open-air bath. It was the correct answer. Go down Mt. Kurikoma toward Sukawa Onsen. Every time the facility is visible from the mountain trail, it smells of sulfur. The tension goes up. There is also shampoo and body soap in the washing area, so you can get shiny. On the way back, I got on the Shinkansen while drinking beer while feeling the smell of sulfur coming out of my body. Maybe since Norikura Onsen like this.

I used it at a day trip hot spring. The open-air bath is large and the pale hot water is very beautiful. You can use it for a day trip when the bus for Sukawa Onsen arrives, so you can enter it before climbing Mt. Kurikoma. Compared to the nearby Kurikoma Sanso, the hot water is mellow and the color is pale and muddy. Probably because of the large capacity of the bathtub. Both are great, but I preferred Kogen Onsen.

Wonderful autumn leaves and first snow. I stayed on October 17th, and I heard that the autumn leaves are in the final stages, but I enjoyed the autumn leaves on the mountain road from Ichinoseki. The building is old but well cleaned and clean. The staff are also kind and at home. The room is heated, but it takes time to warm up. The corridors and cafeterias are wide, so it's cold. Above all, a good hot spring! The food was delicious at night, although I felt the volume was a little low. Viking in the morning. The Kaku Onsen is wonderful.

A hot spring crowded with mountaineers. One-day bathing is possible. Towels are also sold. It will be closed in winter. You can stay overnight and there is also a self-catering department. There is a large open-air bath outside. The autumn leaves are also wonderful. The hot spring is also a wonderful white muddy hot spring. There is a bus from Ichinoseki Station. ※nearby information There are hot springs and souvenir shops just after entering the Akita prefecture side. There is also a municipal campsite nearby, which costs 200 yen per night. The view of Lake Sukawa on the river in Akita Prefecture is also superb. There is a well-maintained lakeside campsite there.

I visited in early October 2021. (The destination of the day is the mud hot spring in Akita next door) National highway No. 342 extending west from Ichinoseki IC When you cross Genbikei, the road becomes steeper and narrower. The Sukawa Kougen on the prefectural border of Iwate Akita is over 1,100m above sea level, so it seems that the season of autumn leaves is earlier than that of the flat land. It took a long time to arrive because the preceding large sightseeing bus could not be separated easily. The Sukawa Kougen, which is also the starting point for Mt. Kurikoma, is crowded with many hikers. I wasn't careful because it was a corona disaster, but even considering that it was a weekend, there were quite a few people. There are two hot spring facilities in Sukawa Kougen, and this time we will use Sukawa Kougen Onsen for a day trip. * The other is Kurikoma Sanso Accept at the front desk and go to the hot spring. We also sell towels, so buy them as souvenirs. One-day bathing fee is 700 yen (350 yen for children) * There is a charge for the open-air bath Dainichiyu and the indoor bath. * Corrected because I posted the wrong amount. Only the indoor bath is used this time. The hall is not new, but there are many fascinating parts such as a structure that can withstand heavy snowfall. Also, I was worried that there was a stuffed toy of Kuma no Poo in the hall. The bath is in the back of the inn. You will pass in front of the shop (souvenir shop) on the way. The entrance to the bathroom is lined with blue and red curtains for men and women. There is a valuables locker (coins will not be returned) in the dressing room, so it is safer to put your smartphone or wallet here. A dressing room that is by no means large. Only one dryer was installed in the washbasin. There are two baths, an indoor bath and an open-air bath. The temperature of the indoor bath is slightly higher (experience 44 ° C or higher) The open air felt lower. The hot spring is an acidic spring with a strong odor of hydrogen sulfide with a pH of 2.2. It was close to Sukayu Onsen. The open-air bath has a small bathtub, so if you want to enjoy a large bathtub, we recommend using the outdoor Dainichiyu. After the bath, I had edible wild plants soba (800 yen) at the restaurant. Is the water in the water cooler delicious because it uses spring water? It will be closed in winter due to the heavy snowfall. Unfortunately, the 2021 business ended on November 3rd. Next time, I would like to consider using accommodation.
