Kaze no Yu, in Fujinomiya (Shizuoka prefecture) on the Asagiri plateau at the foot of Mount Fuji, heats sodium-chloride water to 41°C. An indoor bath, an outdoor rotenburo bath, and a sauna round out the facility.
Insider tip — Kaze no Yu, the wind spring, serves the Asagiri plateau of Fujinomiya City at 700 metres elevation on the southwestern flank of Mount Fuji, where dairy farmers established Japan most photogenic mountain pastures beneath Japan most iconic volcanic peak. The Asagiri plateau is the largest paragliding site near Mount Fuji and the expansive grasslands produce the mozzarella cheese and fresh milk that have made this highland district a destination for farm tourism — with the inverted-pyramid profile of Fuji rising above the meadows in the clear morning air that gives the plateau its evocative name.
