Presentazione generale

Kusatsu Onsen

Mountain spa set around hot springs, public baths and volcanic trails.

The discovery of Kusatsu Onsen is centred around Yubatake, Sainokawara Park and Mount Kusatsu-Shirane. The stay thus alternates between mountain reliefs, natural spaces and volcanic landscapes, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only most famous site.

Vedi tutto

For a stay of 2 to 4 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

World Heritage

Filature de soie de Tomioka

4,8 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Tomioka's silk mill retains the long brick buildings, workshops and machines that accompanied the industrial modernization of Japan. The site explains in concrete terms how the production of greige silk connected local know-how, imported techniques and international trade at the Meiji era.

Remarkable location

Mont Asama

4,5 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Mount Asama dominates the centre of Honshu with its active volcanic cone, dark slopes and ash landscapes. Access varies according to the activity of the volcano, but the surroundings already offer clear views of the mountain, between forests, lava fields and altitude stations.

Place indismissible

Yubatake

4,7 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Yubatake canalizes in the center of Kusatsu a very hot thermal water in long wooden pipes before its distribution to the baths. Vapour, sulphurous smell and night lighting structure the square, lined with inns and small sloping streets.

Place indismissible

Sainokawara Park

4,6 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Sainokawara follows a valley where the thermal water is outcropping between rocks, pools and steam plumes. A large outdoor bath occupies the top of the park, while the path from the centre allows to understand how the springs shape the local landscape directly.
