Fukiage Open-air Onsen
吹上露天の湯
A free wild hot spring in the forest on the slopes of Mt. Tokachi, made famous by the TV drama “From the North Country.” It is mixed-gender with no changing rooms, suited to adventurous onsen lovers.
Fukiage Open-air Onsen sits about 1,000 m up in the forest along the Tokachidake Onsen road in Kamifurano Town. Hot spring water flows naturally into rock pools. Entry is free and the bath is open around the clock, but there are no changing rooms or attendants, and it is mixed-gender, so bring a swimsuit or a towel to wrap yourself in. About 200 m away, Hakuginso offers a regular day-use onsen for around ¥700, which may suit most visitors better. It is about 30 minutes by car from Farm Tomita. Bears are sometimes seen in the area, so avoid going alone at night. Roads may be icy in winter.
