Day 5 – Experience Onsen Hotel in Onsen Town
Take JR Super Hokuto train from Sapporo Station to Noboribetsu Station 🚆 → transfer bus to Noboribetsu Onsen bus terminal → walk for a short distance to our hotel, 第一瀧本館 Dai-ichi Takimotokan to drop luggage.
After dropping our luggage, we walk to our first attraction, Jigokudani Volcanic Valley / Hell Valley, which located behind our hotel. My planning is to further walk to River Oyunuma Natural Footbath, but Lucas is too lazy to walk. So, we’re going for our lunch at Charcoal Grill and Ramen “ISEKURA”, and check in hotel. We are lucky that we can stay in Traditional Japanese Room, because initially we are booking western style room as Japanese rooms are fully booked. Today is a chill and relax day. We spend most of the time in our Onsen Hotel and hot tubbing. Night time, we are walking on Gokuraku Street, and have our dinner at Onsen Ichiba.
