Tenninkyo Hot Spring

A Hot Spring Village Surrounded by Gorges in the Heart of Daisetsuzan

Tenninkyo Hot Spring is a historic hot spring located in a steep gorge along the Chubetsu River within Daisetsuzan National Park. Opened in 1897, this onsen serves as a retreat for Asahikawa City and a base for climbing Daisetsuzan. The solitary inn nestled in the gorge offers a luxurious hot spring experience with marble and cypress baths, featuring natural hot spring water flowing directly from the source. The stone outdoor bath provides a close view of the columnar joints and offers stunning seasonal scenery. Day-trip bathing is also available. The onsen town features a free footbath called "Tennyo no Yu." Nearby, you can visit "Hagoromo Falls," selected as one of Japan's top 100 waterfalls, making it a perfect spot to relax after a stroll. (As of 2025, the walking path to "Hagoromo Falls" is closed.)
