Hokkaido Chitose City
An onsen area in Hokkaido whose waters rise on the shore of Lake Shikotsu, Japan’s northernmost lake that never freezes. Surrounded by the primeval forest of Shikotsu-Toya National Park, its iron-rich waters turn a pale brown when exposed to the air. From the inns standing on the lakeshore, you can view Mount Eniwa and Mount Fuppushi, and in winter the lights of the Hyoto Festival decorate the lakeside.
Availability and rates are shown on each booking site.
