Hot springs in Onneyu

Onneyu Onsen is a small hot spring village in the Rubeshibe district of eastern Hokkaido. Its name comes directly from the Ainu language, combining onne, meaning large, and yu, meaning hot spring. The village is bordered on three sides by the overlapping extents of the Akan, Daisetsuzan, and Shiretoko national parks. The waters are classified as a sodium sulfate spring and are noted for their skin-softening properties.
