Hakone's Historic Blended Spring

Nestled in the Hakone Yumoto area, Yumoto Onsen (a blend of sources No. 12, 72, 84, 89, 99, and 112) is a luxurious fusion of six distinct springs. It symbolizes the abundant water volume of Yumoto, which historically thrived as one of the ancient Hakone Seven Hot Springs. The chloride spring water, enveloping the skin like a delicate veil, delivers restorative warmth deep into the body's core. The lingering, cozy sensation after bathing gently promotes deep relaxation, easing away daily fatigue. This spring is recommended for those seeking to deeply warm their body and mind and indulge in tranquil moments.
