The nature-rich location of the hot springs in the mountains is the attraction. The salt spring contains calcium, sodium, and chloride with an abundance of minerals from the ancient seawater. Sink into the hot water to slowly heat your body from the core. The hot water boasts a great, long-lasting thermal effect. The Mountain Spring depicts Mt. Gobu with its rich greenery, and the River Spring depicts Toryunada (a scenic area featuring wild rocks) in the Kakogawa River. Additionally, a wide variety of open-air baths, waterfall showers, and houseboat saunas are available to enjoy. One can heal the fatigue of daily life in relaxation while enjoying the various types of baths.
