Aone Onsen

Welling up quietly in the hills of Kawasaki Town, Aone is a historic spa known in the Edo period as a bath connected to the Sendai domain. Surrounded by rich forest in a calm setting, it has long been loved by travelers seeking to leave the everyday world behind and relax.

Highlights

The colorless, clear, and soft water blends easily with the skin and keeps the body warm afterward. From the inns' open-air baths you can gaze upon green mountains, and bathing to the songs of birds is a rare pleasure. The calm, history-tinged atmosphere is another of its charms.

Enjoying the Seasons

Spring through summer brings fresh greenery, while autumn colors the mountains with vivid foliage. In winter, amid the stillness of a snowbound landscape, the warm water sinks into the heart all the more. This is a spa where you can feel the shifting of nature up close in every season.

Access and Basic Information

From the nearest railway station, travel is mainly by bus or car. By car, heading toward Zao from the Murata or Shiroishi interchange on the Tohoku Expressway makes access easy.

A Quick Tip

This spa is ideally suited to those seeking quiet. Combining it with Togatta Onsen or the Okama crater of Zao lets you fully savor the appeal of the Zao foothills.
