More in this area
Yoro Valley Goriyaku-no-yu
A day-use-only onsen on the Otaki side of Yoro Valley on the Boso Peninsula, near Awamata Falls. A rotenburo looking over wooded hills and a timber indoor bath hold the dark-tinted alkaline water typical of Boso. Popular after hikes and waterfall walks; towel and robe rental mean you can come empty-handed. Closes early at 18:00; Wednesdays off.
Kameyama Onsen Hotel
About 70 minutes from central Tokyo via the Aqua-Line, a hot-spring inn founded in 1950 on the shore of Lake Kameyama in the Boso hills. Its chocolate-brown 'kuroyu' bicarbonate water — billed as Boso's finest beauty bath — flows freely into a large bath with lake and forest views. Day use 11:30–18:00, ¥1,000 on weekdays; no day bathing Thursdays and Fridays. In autumn pair it with a foliage cruise on the lake.
Yoro Valley Onsen Sagawa
A 12-room inn in Yoro Valley, the Boso Peninsula's autumn-colour spot and the last place in the Kanto region to turn, peaking late November to early December. Boso's signature coffee-coloured alkaline 'black water' fills the indoor and open-air baths; day use is a flat ¥700 for ages 3 and up, 11:00–15:00. Eat lunch in the dining room and the bath is free — spring bamboo-shoot dishes are the speciality. Five minutes by bus from Yoro-Keikoku Station on the Kominato Railway to Yorokan-mae. Lunchtime opening can be suspended at short notice, so phone ahead.
