HOT SPRING IN HAKUBA
Hakuba Village is also famous for having interesting hot springs with six different sources such as Hakuba Shionomichi Onsen which was confined in fossa magna for over 25 million years and has water that changes into dark brown when exposed to air, and the Hakuba Happo Onsen which is a natural hydrogen hot spring. Visiting different hot springs will surely blow away your everyday fatigue.
Nature of spring: Alkaline simple spring ( alkaline hypotonic hot spring) The hot spring that gushes out through the serpentine stratum, which is a geological characteristic of Happo-one, is a transparent alkaline simple spring.The hydrogen-ion concentration was pH11.2 when collected and pH11.6 when analyzed, which is one of the strongest alkali hot springs in Japan. Strong alkaline hot springs have a peeling effect of removing old surfaces of the skin and you will quickly notice that you skin is becoming smoother while bathing.

Nature of spring: Sodium chloride, hydrogen carbonate hot spring “Kurashita no Yu” at the Hakuba Shionomichi Onsen has water that tastes salty when you lick it. This is because it was originally seawater which was confined deep in the active fossa magna that divided the Japanese Islands and brought up from the stratum of 1,050m below ground after 25 million years when the Northern Alps which was at the bottom of the sea rose by crustal movement. A few hot springs at Shinshu and Hakuba uses this water, but Kurashita no Yu contains rich minerals which others don't and pours out an amazing 1,500 liters of hot water every minute. You can feel the ancient history while watching the Northern Alps from the outdoor baths while bathing in a 100% natural source hot spring.

Nature of spring: Sodium chloride hot spring (neutral hypotonic hot spring). A natural hot spring emerging from the riverside of Hime River near the Otari Village. In 2014 the hydrogen-ion concentration was measured to be pH7.4 which is neutral(close to alkalescent). PH7.4 is almost equal to the human blood and is a gentle water for skin. Looking at the pH alone, it is also suitable for dry skin.
