Check before bathing
- Opening hours
- 06:00–21:00; closed on the second Tuesday of each month. A dated 2025 tourism-association listing gives an adult price of ¥300, which is used as the 2026 budget reference; an older official page still lists ¥200, so confirm the current rate at the bath.
- Access
- About an 8-minute walk from Owani-Onsen Station, according to the tourism-association walking map.
