In the popular Nozawa Onsen area there are 13 individual baths called "soto-yu" (public baths). The history of hot springs go back to around the 800 AD.
Nozawa onsen is a charming town, and the efforts by the local authorities to promote its bathing culture resulted in a cute little booklet to collect ink-free stamps! I loved the approach, and used it to visit 10 different sites in town. It was in Japanese, but had numbers so I could figure out locations. At the end, I was awarded with an original towel with design by artist Taro Okamoto, so pretty! I recommend it for other travellers they do this, it costs less than 500 yen and makes a great adventure of your visit to the town. I arrived on a snowy/rainy day, and the information office went as far as to lent me a handkerchief to wipe the stamps! I loved their care for the utmost details, very happy with all the experience.

Nozawa Onsen is located just one hour’s drive from Nagano City in the northern part of Nagano Prefecture – a charming hot spring village located at the foot of Kenashi-yama Mountain which is home to around 4,000 people. The village is said to date back to 8th century but has been renowned for it’s hot springs and traditional inns since the Edo period. More recently Nozawa has also gained popularity as a ski area that features a great variety of terrain and amazing snow that’s hard to match.
Nozawa Onsen is the most gorgeous little ski village, comes to life from 2pm. Skiing is awesome. Great places to eat. Easy to get around by foot. Loving our stay.

This Yu is in the Main Street of Nozawa. It’s an amazing building. Inside the ceiling soars. But the baths are often scalding hot. You might be able to turn the gold tap on to ensure the bath stays moderate but a villager will turn up and crank up the heat.

Right on the edge of Nozawa Onsen, it is easy to get to and worth stopping in to visit. Amazing ornately carved timber on the temple, shrine and outbuildings has to be seen. Huge stone pieces form the base. We visited in winter so the snow was quite deep - and as we were the first ones in for the day we had to make our own path! The huge majestic trees add to the peaceful atmosphere. No guides and only a little signage so you are free to make your own way around.
