Insider tip — Toji no Sato, the restorative-bathing village, serves Kami-cho in the northern Hyogo highlands where the spa district has developed around the concept of toji — the Japanese tradition of extended hot spring stays for rest and rejuvenation. The Kami mountain community borders the Hyonosen-Ushiroyama-Nagisan Quasi-National Park, a vast wilderness of granite ridges, ancient beech forests, and alpine meadows in northern Hyogo.
