Gensen Kakenagashi Hot Spring Theme Park Ryudo
Gunma Prefecture/Yuno's small OnsenEver-changing landscapes, 18 hidden hot springs where dragons breathe.
Ryūdō is located in a secluded area in the mountains of Minakami, Gunma, at an altitude of 800m, where you can enjoy nature and experience 18 open-air hot springs with a wild charm.
There are many cats on the property, and some of them will let you pet them, which is incredibly soothing. On the other hand, if you’re not comfortable around cats, it might be a bit tough. At night, when I went to the “Star” bath, a kitty had snuck in and was curled up in a changing basket (lol).Many of the staff are from overseas, but everyone’s attentiveness was truly outstanding—from guiding us to our Room to serving meals—so I never felt uneasy during my stay.Most importantly, the Onsen was fantastic: we were able to reserve several large baths for private use, and it was a lot of fun.If there’s one thing to note, since it’s surrounded by nature, you may see some insects. I was also worried about mobile reception, but Rakuten Mobile and au worked without any issues.I’d love to visit again when the weather is cooler.
R141 7/28/2026I usually stay at expensive places, but they’re all the same and boring. This Accommodation has lots of private baths—and you can use them anytime, 24 hours a day! There’s nowhere else like it. The meals are great too—I was amazed. The location is a bit inconvenient and the Facility is old, but that’s why it’s reasonably priced. And checkout is at 11:00—does anywhere else do that? Probably only here. I’ll be back in winter for a snowy-view bath! Oh, there are cats on the property, just so you know.

In Oku-Tone, the remote area of Mizukami, nature's bounty from mountains and rivers abounds, using fresh seasonal vegetables harvested from the mountains on the same day.
