Hiratani Onsen Yamabuki no Uto
A stop-over hot spring that draws Hiraya Onsen along National Route 444. The fluttering atmosphere of the mountain village is attractive. From the observation bathhouse, it overlooks the Nohkami valley, and there are also open-air baths and two family baths. The only inn is Hiratani Onsen-an (for two people, 32,500 yen per person), which is run by the same management that welcomes one pair of guests a day.
