Aguas termales en Nikko Yumoto Onsen

2019年6月22日 by nikkobase

Ubicado a minutos de Senjogahara se encuentra un tranquilo pueblo de Onsen (aguas termales) en la costa norte del lago Yunoko.

Se dice que un monje budista que construyó un templo en Nikko hace unos 1200 años para introducir el budismo en la zona descubrió este Onsen.

Quien se encuentre en Yumoto Onsen puede acercarse al baño de pies disponible de forma gratuita en la ciudad. El agua infundida con azufre blanco ayuda a combatir la neuralgia y el reumatismo, y es ideal para descansar y relajarse en medio de una impactante naturaleza.

Al norte de la ciudad se encuentra Onsenji, un templo budista con un pequeño baño de aguas termales abierto al público. Junto al templo se puede recorrer el pantano Yunodaira, donde la mayor parte del agua caliente de la ciudad brota del suelo.

En la zona también podrán alojarse en los hoteles y ryokan tradicionales con aguas termales, imperdibles para una jornada a puro relax!

Acceso: desde la estación de Tobu Nikko (o JR Nikko) tomar el bus Tobu con destino a Yumoto Onsen.

It is said that this area became an over 400ha marsh over a long time, from a lake that was formed by the eruption of Mt. Nantai. Additionally, 175ha out of it is registered under the Ramsar Convention as “Oku-Nikko-shitsugen” (the marsh in Oku-Nikko).

More than 350 species of native plants and various wild birds can be seen in Senjogahara, which can be explored through its hiking course that even beginners can walk.

The recommended period to visit this area is the middle of June to the beginning of August, when Cotton-Sedges and Meadow Sweets are in full bloom. And also at the end of September to the beginning of October when the grass turn to beautiful shades of red.

Access: Take the Tobu bus from JR or Tobu Nikko station for Yumoto Onsen, get off at Sanbonmatsu bus stop (approx. 50 minutes). The Senjogahara observatory is right in front of the bus stop. You can also get off at Ryuzu-no-taki bus stop or go all the way to Yumoto Onsen and start the longer hiking course from there.
