Toshichi Onsenhighest in Tohokusulphuropen-air bathHachimantai

Toshichi sits at 1,400 metres on the flank of Hachimantai, the highest hot spring in the Tohoku region, and the water comes up through the floor of the baths themselves — milky white sulphur rising through the gravel you are sitting on. The open-air baths are terraced down the hillside with almost nothing between them and the sky.

Above the cloud layer on a clear morning you look out over a sea of cloud with Mt. Iwate standing out of it, which is the reason people book months ahead for a night here. The road is closed by snow for half the year, so the inn opens around late April and shuts at the end of October. Day bathing is ¥600 for adults and runs from eight in the morning to six in the evening.

**The water rises through the bath floor.** Not piped in — it comes up through the gravel underfoot. That is why the pools are shallow and why they are where they are. **Half the year it is shut.** Late April to the end of October. Outside that the road is under snow and the inn is closed entirely. **Stay for the morning cloud sea.** Sunrise above the cloud layer with Iwate standing out of it is the reason for booking a night, and day bathers never see it. **There is a mixed bath.** Along with separate indoor baths and a women-only open-air pool. Deciding in advance is easier than at the changing room. **It is 1,400 metres up.** Cold even in August once you are out of the water, and the drive is a mountain road. Layers and a full tank.
