Gifu & Aichi Hot Spring Sauna Journey

Photographed November 2025 by the Editor-in-Chief
✦ Visited November 2025

Aichi Prefecture is home to an exceptional number of outstanding sauna establishments. To make this trip a success, I researched every hot spring and sauna facility across Aichi Prefecture in advance, handpicked the ones I considered truly exceptional, and visited every single one of them. The verdict: it turned out to be a journey of absolute perfection. Join me as I take you through this 3-night, 4-day adventure, including a pre-trip evening kickoff.
