A popular natural hot spring with a superb view from the top of the mountain at the altitude of 700m. Opened in 1999, "Kocchi-no-yu (this bath)" is a hot spring with a simple and calm atmosphere and is popular among the local people. Within this place, there are indoor and outdoor baths, and you are able to enjoy a superb view of Mt. Fuji and the Kofu Basin while soaking in the hot springs. In addition, the bath is divided into Nuru-yu (warm water temperature) and Atsu-yu (hot water temperature), and it is also nice that you are able to have a relaxing time in accordance with your taste of water temperature.

"Acchi-no-yu (that bath)" built along the mountain boasts twice the scale of Kocchi-no-yu , moreover, the overlooking view is also spectacular.
You are certainly able to see Mt. Fuji from Acchi-no-yu, and it is open at night as well so that you are able to see the beautiful night sky called "the starry sky is the ceiling" at night.

Since Hottarakashi Onsen opens one hour before sunrise, you are able to enjoy the sunrise while soaking in the hot springs. The hot spring quality is simple alkaline so that it is mild and less- irritant on the skin. It allows those who have weaker skin to relax slowly, as a result, it is being popular to a wide range of age groups, from small children to the elderly.

    視野很寬闊,可以看到富士山的露天溫泉,加上簡單美味的美食,非常享受!

    几年前去过这里。当时就觉得温泉名字特别有趣,有一种很任性的幽默感。温泉水温适中,而且露天温泉的视野相当棒。可惜没有待到很晚。今天看到这篇记事勾起了对这里的记忆,也刚刚知晓还可以在夜间一边泡温泉一边看星星,太有诱惑力啦!下次一定安排傍晚时分去。好期待!
