They are popular. They are normally segregated, but yes, it's nude.

But don't forget the tiny towel to cover up your parts if you are of the modest type. (Or attempt to).

now that it is getting cool again i might start heading back to the onsens again. Iam thinking about doing the hike to the one up above Hakuba. Anyone ever do it? And info? I hear that it is best to tent it and stay overight.


Its about a three hour hike from Sarukura. There are lots of water stops on the way so you don't have to carry much. Its well doable as a day hike. Up for an hour, across for an hour, and then up for an hour again.

The hut there closes about this time of year, and its free to use the onsen thereafter. If you camp, I doubt you'll be alone. Its a nice big pool, but there are big stone and concrete walls up there. Its not the dig your own down the river type deal.

I like the below onsen in Kyoto -

Kurama

Arahiyama train station - foot onsen! keep your clothes on and just soak your feet after a long day walking and sightseeing \:D
