♨️The Remote Hot Spring of Oku-Kashi, Beloved by the Lord of Shirakawa

Fukushima · Motoyu Kashi Onsen Ryokan Daikokuya

1

The Only Inn Deep in the Oku-Kashi Mountains

• 🏔️The sole remote inn at Kashi Onsen, upstream on the Abukuma River within Nikko National Park
• 📜Said to have been treasured by Matsudaira Sadanobu, lord of the Shirakawa domain
• 🍃Spring greenery, summer streams, autumn foliage, and deep winter snow fill the windows through the year

2

A 150-Year-Old Mixed-Bathing Bedrock Bath

• 🪨The vast bath 'Oiwaburo' measures 5m by 15m, up to 1.2m deep
• 💧Water flows from a torii-shaped spout at 44–45°C, while the bedrock floor itself seeps water at 31–34°C
• 👶Legend holds that stroking the 'Kodakara-ishi' (child-blessing stone) in the bath brings the blessing of children

3

Pure Flow-Through from Two Separate Sources

• ♨️Oiwaburo and Sakuranoyu draw from a simple hot spring — mildly alkaline, hypotonic, and high-temperature
• 🌿Ebisunoyu, by contrast, comes from a separate calcium-sodium sulfate spring
• 🚿Neither source is diluted or reheated — both flow through completely unaltered

4

Sakuranoyu and the Open-Air Bath

• 🌸Sakuranoyu, the women's bath with a faint cypress scent, draws the same water as Oiwaburo
• 🌲The Ebisunoyu open-air bath lets guests take in Oku-Kashi's untouched nature
• 🛁Oiwaburo reserves women-only hours from 5–7 am and 7–9 pm

Main and Annex Rooms

• 🏠The 13 rooms in the main building are warm, traditional Japanese-style rooms steeped in old-world charm
• 🏯Of the three detached annex houses, Shokatei is a wooden building that was once Matsudaira Sadanobu's Edo-period villa and is a designated village cultural property
• 🌄Shokatei offers the finest views, with the Abukuma valley and Mt. Kashi filling every window

Seasonal Fare from the Deep Mountains

• 🐟Dishes carefully prepared from seasonal mountain and stream ingredients
• 🥩Aizu horse-meat sashimi (fillet), fried iwana char and steamed wagyu are available as special add-on dishes
• 🍶Carefully selected Tohoku ingredients are prepared without shortcuts, true to a mountain retreat
