Tashirotai, Hakkoda, Aomori

Michinoku Fukasawa Onsen

A strong self-drive stop if you value abundant source-flowing water and a quiet mountain setting more than modern spa facilities. Public transport is difficult: the JR bus does not stop at the inn, and there is no shuttle. The current adult price is based on a dated 2026 on-site report, so confirm it at reception.
