Noboribetsu Onsen

Noboribetsu · Hokkaido

Hokkaido's most famous onsen town, built around a dramatic volcanic crater called Jigokudani, which means Hell Valley. Nine distinct spring types bubble up from beneath the valley floor. The sulfurous steam rising from the crater creates an atmosphere unlike anywhere else in Japan. This is where you go when you want to feel the earth still working.
