Sounkyo Hot Spring

A hot spring resort where you can enjoy the spectacular beauty of the gorge from season to season

Sounkyo Onsen, located in Daisetsuzan National Park, is the largest hot spring resort in northern Hokkaido, attracting 2 million visitors a year. Hotels and guest houses stand side by side in a Western-style atmosphere modeled after a Canadian mountain resort. Surrounded by precipitous canyons, the hot spring resort offers spectacular seasonal scenery such as flowers in bloom in spring, fresh greenery in summer, autumn leaves in fall, and icy waterfalls in winter. It is also a popular base for nearby sightseeing, including the Sounkyo Kurodake ropeway and Asahiyama Zoo.
