Tucked away in Takasaki, Gunma, Harunako Onsen draws on naturally heated thermal sodium-chloride water at 39°C. Visitors will find an indoor bath, rotenburo and sauna.
Insider tip — Harunako Onsen is situated near Lake Haruna (榛名湖) — a volcanic crater lake high on Mt. Haruna in Gunma. The mountain's volcanic geology supplies warm artesian waters. Combine a visit with the Haruna Shrine, which clings dramatically to a volcanic rock formation above the lake.
