About Takumi no Yado Miyama Ouan
"Takumi no Yado Miyama Ouan" is a hot spring ryokan in Takayama, Gifu Prefecture. Nestled at the foot of the Northern Alps in the deep forests of Okuhida, this inn makes full use of Hida wood in its architecture. From the open-air bath in the large public bath, you can take in a sweeping view of the surrounding mountains, including Mount Kasagatake, and enjoy the changing seasons right in the tub. The indoor bath, fragrant with hinoki cypress, is also equipped with a reclining bath and a cold plunge bath. The newly added self-löyly sauna lets you create steam yourself in a space scented with wood, wrapping yourself in pleasant heat. With four free private baths that require no reservation, plus special rooms with open-air baths fed directly by the source, this inn offers the luxury of having the hot spring all to yourself.
Hot SpringONSEN
Large public bath
A large public bath where a generous amount of water flows directly from the source, blending multiple springs from Hirayu Onsen. The soft simple hot spring water wraps around the skin like silk, and its gentle texture releases tension from the body. In the open-air bath overlooking the Northern Alps, you can soak while gazing at trees tinted green or snow-covered ridgelines. The indoor bath, fragrant with hinoki cypress, draws from a different spring from the open-air bath, offering a different kind of comfort each time you move from one tub to another.
Private bath
A private bath that requires no reservation and can be used whenever it is available. With both an open-air bath and an indoor bath, once you close the door it becomes a bathhouse just for you and your companions. The time spent soaking without worrying about being seen, listening only to the sound of the wind and the rustling trees, is one of the luxuries unique to this inn. As it can be used free of charge during your stay, you can enjoy the water in both morning and evening, each with its own distinct atmosphere.
Open-air bath in the guest room
A hinoki cypress open-air bath on the terrace of a special room. Fed directly by the source, the hot spring water flows abundantly, letting you soak as much as you like, whenever you like, without concern for anyone else. Next to the tub is a foot bath, so you can also sit and gaze at the Okuhida scenery after bathing. At night, the silence deepens, and you can have the four seasons of the mountains all to yourself without even leaving your room.
Sauna & Cold BathSAUNA & COLD BATH
Self-löyly Sauna
In this sauna, gently scented with wood, you pour water onto the sauna stones yourself. The rising steam turns into soft heat that envelops your skin, and as you control the dry heat and humid heat in rhythm with your breathing, your mind and body gradually unwind. When you lower your heated body into the indoor cold plunge bath, a clear chill runs through you and the heat quietly recedes. After getting out, take a deep breath in Okuhida's crisp air and surrender yourself to the stillness of the mountains.
