Local Pick
Overview
A beloved public bathhouse at the foot of Mount Hakodate, fed by iron-rich springs that turn the water a distinctive reddish-brown.
This no-frills community onsen draws from a natural hot spring enriched with iron, giving the water its signature brownish-red tint. Locals have soaked here for generations, and the atmosphere is warmly communal. The bathing area includes indoor pools and a large outdoor bath where you can feel the mountain breeze. At just 440 yen, it's one of the best values in Hakodate.
Local tips
Come at dawn when local fishermen soak before heading out. The early morning mist over the outdoor bath with Mount Hakodate looming above is unforgettable.
