  • 【Hot Spring Onsen Baths】

    How many baths do you have?
    One communal bath for men, Ebisu no Yu, and two communal baths for women, Benten no Yu and Kashin no Yu.
    Is your hot spring water gensen kakenagashi (continuous flow from the source)?
    Wakura Onsen hot spring water comes out of the ground at 89.1 degrees Celsius and is a sodium–calcium chloride spring,
    making it hypertonic, weakly alkaline and hyperthermal.

    Water is added to lower the temperature.
    In winter, cold air temperatures may lower the water temperature.
    In such cases, water may be heated to maintain a higher temperature.

    The communal baths use a system that constantly injects new hot spring water while also filtering and recirculating the bath water.

    Communal bath hours are 5:00 a.m.–1 a.m.

    Yes. Shampoo, conditioner, hair dryers and towels are provided.
    Do you have a large bath that can be reserved for private group use?
    No, we do not offer this option at Kagaya.
    Can a pregnant woman enter the baths?
    It is generally thought that a pregnant woman should avoid entering a hot spring bath in the first and third trimester.
    Hot spring bathing can drain physical strength, so spending long periods of time in the bath should be avoided.
    Pregnant women should consult with their doctor.
    Do you switch the men's and women's baths?
    No. They always remain the same.
    Do you accept day guests for use of the baths?
