Overview

Nyuto Onsenkyo is a collective term for several hot springs located in Senboku City, Akita Prefecture, within Towada-Hachimantai National Park. Situated at an altitude of 600-800 meters, this hot spring resort is surrounded by abundant nature and comprises seven unique and charming inns. Each inn offers a distinct type of hot spring water, ranging from historic ryokans (traditional Japanese inns) to modern hot spring resorts. Day trips are possible, and purchasing a "Yumeguri-cho" (hot spring hopping pass) allows you to experience each inn's onsen once. Nyuto Onsenkyo has a long history, said to have thrived as a spa since the Edo period. Each hot spring inn has its own unique history and legends, captivating visitors. For instance, Tsurunoyu Onsen, as the name suggests, is said to be where a crane once healed its wounds. Kuroyu Onsen, on the other hand, is characterized by its jet-black water, rich in sulfurous components, believed to offer various therapeutic benefits. Nyuto Onsenkyo is a captivating destination offering majestic nature, hot springs, and a palpable sense of history. Enjoy the onsen at your own pace and relax. Beyond the onsen, the surrounding area boasts attractions such as Mount Nyuto and Lake Tazawa. Why not plan the perfect trip where you can fully enjoy both the onsen and the natural beauty?
