Private riverbed spring

The 'Mixed Source No. 9 and 10' naturally gushes from the riverbed of the Toyohira River, which flows through Jozankei Onsen. By blending multiple private sources, this unique and rich hot spring water is created. A gentle salt veil envelops the skin, delivering warmth deep into the body's core, and a pleasant restorative warmth lingers long after bathing. This blessing from the earth is especially recommended for those seeking to release daily fatigue and experience deep relaxation.

BATHING TIPS
AI Generated

Since this is an exceptionally hot source exceeding 60°C, areas near the outlet can be intensely heated. Outside the bathing season, water temperature is adjusted through flow volume rather than dilution—stir the water gently before settling in slowly to acclimate comfortably.

EFFECT STORY
AI Generated

Rich in dissolved minerals totaling 3.135 g/kg, this chloride spring coats the skin with a protective thermal veil. Its sustained warmth combats poor circulation and frigidity—the moisturizing and heat-retaining properties linger long after bathing, wrapping your body in lasting comfort.
