2024.10.18 (~18:30 Business hours are being shortened)Price: 470 yenIndoor bath: 8 Slightly hotWater bath: 2 lukewarm (100% source)Sauna: 3~4 80℃Open-air bath-like bath: 4-5 lukewarmIt was nice to have all the facilities I wanted.Are you dissatisfied with the smallness of each facility? Yes, but hot water is better. The strong sulfur smell reminds me of a hot spring. Your skin will feel supple while you're in it, and it'll feel firmer after you get out of the bath.The water bath also seemed to be made with 100% source water, and there were many hot water flowers floating in the water.I think the quality of the hot water is top class in Toyama.

I had been taken there many times when I was in Shirakaba Heights, but I felt nostalgic and decided to visit again.Is it now run by volunteers?The hot water has a thick texture and is of very good quality, and you can stay in the water for a long time at 40℃.The rest room is a good size and comfortable, and the price is low, so I'm sure I'll come back again.This hot spring must not be lost.Business hours and days may have changed due to rising fuel prices.If you're visiting from afar, it might be a good idea to call.

It's a little bit into the mountain from the road... The water quality and environment are the best. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows at the hot spring is also great at an affordable price.

Bring your own soap and shampoo or purchase disposable ones. It looks like a public bath, but the shower is usable and the rest room is spacious. I think it's a good price in this area.

The hot spring water contains sulfur, which is good for the skin.I was bitten by an insect the other day and couldn't get rid of the itching, but after getting out of the hot spring bath, the itching was completely gone.Sulfur has a bactericidal effect. It is effective for all skin diseases, especially eczema, chilblains, and cuts. It is also effective against powdery mildew and mites.The view from the open-air bath was beautiful, but even though it was raining, the fog in the mountains and valleys was so thick that I couldn't take pictures in the open-air bath, which was a shame.It seems that the hot spring management situation is not good, which is the cause of the rise in fuel prices, and the hot spring fees at many hot springs in Japan are rising due to the same reason.I understand, but there is one thing I would like to say, Kameya Onsen is also If the price goes up, I'll personally understand.
