Tokachigawa Onsen Footbath
This soothing footbath is part of the Tokachigawa Onsen Guide Center and Tokachi Nature Center a 20-minute drive away by car from Obihiro Station. Tokachigawa Onsen is a moor (plant-derived) hot spring, quite uncommon in Japan, and contains a lot of plant organic matter. Compared with regular mineral based hot springs the quality of the spring water is rarely found anywhere in the world. The hot spring was said to be called the ‘Medicine marsh’ by the Ainu people, and was designated as a Hokkaido heritage site in 2004. Anyone is welcome to dip their feet into the footbath to try out the water at the south side of Center for free.
