Fukushima Kitashiobara Village
"Urabandai Lake Resort Goshikinomori" is a sprawling resort hotel in Kitashiobara Village, Fukushima Prefecture. At the spectacular open-air bath "Hibarami no Yu," which overlooks Lake Hibara, guests can fully enjoy the free-flowing chlorinated spring water. The sauna is a low-temperature steam sauna, where richly humid steam gently warms the body. There is no cold plunge bath, but guests can cool down with a cold shower. Located just a 3-minute walk from Goshikinuma, it is an ideal place to refresh after outdoor activities in the midst of nature.

A beauty bath rich in metasilicic acid, naturally springing from the hotel grounds. In the open-air bath "Hibarami no Yu" and some pools in the large public bath, it is offered as luxurious free-flowing spring water. The salt content helps retain warmth, making it less likely for you to get cold after bathing. While enjoying the changing seasons of Lake Hibara, you can savor an exquisite hot spring soak.
Sauna TypeSteam Sauna
Capacity6people
A moisture-focused steam sauna filled with abundant steam throughout the room. By warming the body slowly at a low temperature, it offers gentle care for the skin and throat while helping you relax.
