Minakami Onsen

3.5

A hot spring district sprawling along the upper reaches of the Tone River, a river which boasts the largest basin area of any in Japan. One of this district's greatest charms is its magnificent scenery, which commands a view of Mt. Tanigawa, counted as one of Japan's 100 most famous mountains. In addition to fully fledged mountain climbing, the Mt. Tanigawa is a center for river rafting, rock climbing, and other outdoor sports, and attracts many tourists throughout the year. The area's clear sulfate springs and simple springs are characterized by a smooth, velvety feel and are said to aid recovery from fatigue and promote health in addition to helping alleviate nerve pain, rheumatism, and skin diseases.

水上駅からレンタカーで温泉めぐり

水上駅前にあるレンタカー屋さんで、車を借りて、水上の温泉めぐり。水上駅や湯檜曽駅近くにも日帰り入浴可能な旅館がいくつかあります。水上温泉からは少し離れていますが、広大な露天風呂で有名な、宝川温泉も水上駅から車で30分ほどのところにあります。
