Know before you bathe
Wash at the taps before you get in, and keep towels out of the water.
Getting there
Toyama Chiho Railway from Shin-Kurobe, next to Kurobe-Unazukionsen Shinkansen station, 25 minutes to Unazuki Onsen station.
Unazuki has piped its water down from Kuronagi Onsen since it opened in 1923. The source runs at about 88°C, and the weakly alkaline water comes out clear enough that the town calls it among the clearest in Japan. Ten inns belong to the town's cooperative, and most of them look into the gorge.
The public bath Yumedokoro Unazuki has a third-floor open-air bath and the town's tourist information desk on the ground floor. Foot baths sit at the station and at Omokage in the town. Walking tours of the hot-spring town start from the public bath at 10:30 and 13:00.
Worth knowing
- Day bathing at the inns depends on how full they are, so ring ahead in October and November.
