A day trip to Kasatsu Onsen is a great way to “immerse” yourself in Japan’s popular hot spring culture. Kasatsu has long been one of Japan’s most popular onsen towns due to the excellent quality of the town’s hot springs which are believed to cure just about any ailment.

Kasatsu Onsen Town is located high up in the mountains of the Gunma Prefecture and, depending on the season, you could combine your hot springs experience with some hiking or skiing.

In the center of the town you will find the Yubatake, a hot water field which produces the water for all the hot spring resorts (Ryokan) and public baths in the town. Here you can try a free foot soak or pay to enjoy a soak in the public baths.
