A smooth, gently textured cold water bath using natural water, located right in front of the sauna room. Set at a mild temperature that is not too cold, it allows even sauna beginners and those who are not fond of very cold cold water baths to cool down comfortably and gradually with minimal strain on the body. Enjoying fresh air on the totonou chairs in the open-air area while feeling the refreshing forest breeze of Kitayuzawa is superb.
