Tsuetate Onsen is nestled in a deep valley along the Tsuetate River, bordering Kumamoto and Oita prefectures. Known for its tranquil atmosphere and the steam rising from its many hot springs, this area offers a relaxing escape. The traditional wooden ryokans lining the riverbanks add to its charm. Visitors can enjoy several communal bathhouses, including the popular Motoyu, a semi-open-air bath built into the natural rocks. With its cool mountain air, Tsuetate Onsen is an ideal summer retreat. Access is convenient via bus from Hita Station or Kumamoto Kotsu Center.
