I went to get water to drink at home, but I don't know what happened, but there was a chain at the bottom entrance so I couldn't go.When I called, I was told that there was no prospect of reopening.Personally, I really like this place, so I hope they do their best to reopen it.

I came here because I wanted to eat somen with natural carbonated water.The carbonated water made it tangy and crispy, and it was delicious.The salt-grilled sweetfish was also delicious.I was so disappointed that there was no local chicken rice.I didn't stay there so I don't know about the rooms.

Although the road was only slightly narrow, it was difficult to separate. The somen noodles were delicious, but the noodle soup was a little dry, although it's a matter of personal taste.

Natural carbonated water is thick and delicious! We especially recommend the source. There is a wide variety of food menus, and the grilled local chicken and carbonated somen noodles are exceptional!The road isn't that big of a deal either, so I don't think you'll have any problems if you take it slowly. Next time I'll try staying overnight.

It is better to park your car at Hakusui Kosen and walk there.

[202407] I visited Kurotakeso for lunch to enjoy the coolness of midsummer and the carbonated water somen noodles.First of all, it is located in quite a mountain.The road on the Kurodake-so side is quite comfortable, but after the stone sign that says "Kurotake-so" it turns into a gravel road. The 100 meters just before Kurodake-so is quite steep and uneven, and there is no place to break up along the way, so it's quite dangerous. If you are new to driving, drive carefully and pray that no cars will come from the opposite direction.There is an order counter at the back left from the front of the inn, so order there. The basics are carbonated somen, but in the healthy set meal, in addition to carbonated somen, you can also eat enoha (yamame beans), chicken rice, and wild vegetables with miso soup. Well, the somen noodles are 700 yen and the set meal is 1900 yen, so it's a fair price, but I got a good deal considering the tourist spot price and atmosphere fee. In addition to the set meal, we also ordered grilled local chicken.You will be guided to a table with flowing water where you can eat somen noodles first.I was surprised that the natural carbonation was stronger than I expected!It's quite fizzing.What's more, even though it's over 30 degrees in the flatlands, it's extremely cold here lol.We both shivered as we ate the cold somen noodles.After that, the flame of the charcoal grill is warm.Even though it's summer, it's a very unmatched place.Well, somen, enoha, and grilled chicken are common, but they are quite rare in cities and towns, so if you've come this far, let's enjoy them lolHowever, I thought it would be nice to have a service where at least those who enjoyed the food could fill up a plastic bottle with water and take it home.

I visited after seeing the reviews on Google Maps.In conclusion, if you ask me if I would go again, I won't.*Wheelchairs and motorcycles are not allowed.First of all, the roads are too bad.You can go there even by regular car.A car with its body lowered is not allowed in the first place.The road, which was paved with concrete, has collapsed and there are some cracks.The road is extremely bumpy, and there is only one place along the way where you can cross paths with oncoming traffic.Motorcycles are not allowed due to the steep slope and condition of the road surface.If you climb with too much force, there is a high possibility that you will scrape the bottom of the car, even if it is an unmodified car.Since the day of my visit was a weekday, there was no waiting time.I ordered the bamboo set. (1450 yen)There were no instructions on where to sit, so we went to the seats where there was running water to soak our somen noodles.There was no explanation about the water, so I figured it was probably self-serve, so I used the glass they had left to drink carbonated spring water.After a while, rice balls, miso soup, and salt-grilled amame (I heard it was probably yamame) arrived.Somen appeared late.Somen noodles are not flowing, but dancing in a colander.So what's the difference? The moment you put it in your mouth, you get a fizzing sensation of carbonic acid, and for those who find that interesting, this might be the place for you.The yamame trout had fluffy flesh and was well seasoned with salt.Some people wrote about yuzu pepper, but it wasn't really worth mentioning.The restrooms are shared by both men and women in one place.There is a building with a sign saying Yakiniku Yakusho in the back of the building, and it is next to it.How was it with your husband? However, it seems like he won't be coming again.

The charcoal oxygen noodles and Enoha dishes are great, but the 500 yen hot springs are actually better.
