Yukichichibu Onsen

Yukichichibu Onsen

雪秩父温泉

Hokkaido

A rustic day-use hot spring in the Niseko highlands of Rankoshi with around eleven outdoor baths, including a rare milky sulphur mud bath, set below the peak of Chisenupuri. The steaming, faintly egg-scented waters look out over the surrounding mountains.

Why we picked it

Tucked up a valley road away from the Hirafu resort strip, it draws mostly locals rather than the international ski crowd.
