Baikunro

♨️Seventeen centuries of natural flow, and true sulphur water at a Muromachi hidden spring

Shizuoka Umegashima Onsen · Hotel Baikunro

1

A Hidden Spring 1,700 Years in the Flowing

• 🏔️Umegashima Onsen at the very top of the Abe River, one of Japan's oldest hot springs, flowing naturally for some 1,700 years
• 🗡️Takeda Shingen's 'hidden bath', and the mountain cure resort behind the Edo-era tale Onihei Hankacho
• 🏯Founded in the first year of Meiji, the oldest and largest inn in Umegashima Onsen

2

Thick, Natural Sulphur Water

• ♨️Silky sulphur water known for its strength, never cut with added water
• 🛁1.2 tonnes an hour drawn from the source, part Kakenagashi and part circulated
• 🌿No open-air bath, and deliberately so — contact with the air would degrade the sulphur

3

Kin-no-Yu, the Untouched Bath

• 🥇Neither heated nor diluted, straight from the source at its richest and silkiest
• 🛀A hinoki tsubo tub in Tokiwa-no-Yu (men's) and a ceramic one in Choju-no-Yu (women's) hold the Kin-no-Yu
• ⏰Both bathhouses are open around the clock, apart from morning cleaning and water changes

4

Private Family Baths and a Reflexology Corridor

• 🔒Two private family baths, stone-built Ishiburo and cave-like Anaburo, free to use whenever empty
• 🦶The bathhouse corridor doubles as Onihei's Health Walkway, a bamboo-tread reflexology path
• 📜A lobby case displays manuscripts by the poet Yoshii Isamu and photo albums from Meiji to Showa

5

Mountain Kaiseki by the Season

• 🍲Ten courses in all, sansato mountain-village kaiseki, dessert included
• 🐗Wild boar hotpot and duck hotpot, specialities of the deep mountains
• 🐟Salt-grilled ayu or yamame, tempura, and soba made in house

6

Twenty-One Rooms in a Historic Inn

• 🛏️Twenty-one rooms in all: 12 Japanese-Western and 6 Japanese in the main wing, 3 Japanese in the new wing
• 🪟Main-wing Japanese-Western rooms pair an inner twin bedroom with a six-mat tatami space (up to 4)
• 👨‍👩‍👧Ho-no-Ma on the new wing's ground floor is a generous 18-mat Japanese room (up to 6), a favourite with families

7

Into the Mountains of Oku-Shizu

• 🚌About 2 hours on the Shizutetsu Abe Line bus for Umegashima Onsen from JR Shizuoka Station's north exit, and the last stop is the door
• 🚗35 km north on Prefectural Route 29 from Shin-Tomei's Shin-Shizuoka IC, parking for 20 cars
• 🌸The upper Abe River valley, an autumn-leaf spot and the heart of Oku-Shizu
