Furusato-no-yu
Day spa
👍👍 I came here twice during my long weekend in Nozawa and at just 500 yen for admission it’s a great deal. Unlike the free public onsen in Nozawa which are scalding hot, the waters here are a more normal onsen temperature. There are shower stalls with soap and shampoo provided and hairdryers in the ch...

Ōyu Hot Spring
Onsen
👍👍 One of my most memorable onsen experiences!! (Not because the water was scorching hot! 🤣) I didn’t see any tourists during the time I was there, just a lot of local grandmas who gave me excellent tips on how to get in the water!!
There are two tubs, one is “warm” water and the other being “hot.” I...

Kumanotearayu Hot Spring
Onsen
👍👍 Probably the newest/cleanest of the free onsens in town. Onsen temp was more bearable/less scalding hot than others so that was a big plus for me. Going late is even better since you (mostly) get the place to yourself. (stayed there past 'closing time' and there were people coming in)

Sparena
Spa
👍👍 The indoor changing room has a anti slip rubber mat that is painful to walk on barefooted.
The indoor changing room's anti-slip rubber mat, though effective, can be a bit uncomfortable barefooted.
Visiting on a weekday was a win – almost empty pools made it especially enjoyable for the kids.

Nozawa Onsen Village
Tourist attraction
👍👍 山に囲まれた秘境の温泉街。
スキーシーズンは外国人観光客だらけであるが、オフシーズンになると静かでのんびりした温泉街に戻る。
北陸新幹線飯山駅開業の恩恵を受け、首都圏や北陸からのアクセスが向上したのだが、いまいち日本人の観光客が増えないのが残念でならない。
とにかく熱すぎる温泉が売りでもある。

Hikage Gondola Lift Uenotaira Station
Mountain cable car
👍👍 Part of Nozawa Onsen ski field. Great mix of beginner and expert slopes. From long gentle green lines for easy cruising beginners to the challenging long red run that is the skyline that will burn the thighs of those unfit.
A few black diamond runs also offer steep runs with modules, deep features...

Atarashiya
Yakitori restaurant
👍👍 Atarashiya has to be one of my favourite restaurants here in Nozawa Onsen. I have been coming to Nozawa for over 8 years now and ever since my family and I have discovered this restaurant, we have come here every trip! The food is so delicious and I can't wait to go back! Definitely recommend trying...

Nakao-no-yu
Onsen
👍 Free public onsen. Water is pretty hot, be prepared! There are basins to wash yourself either with the cold tap (!) or you can get hot water from the bath to wash yourself with before getting in. Bring your own soap to clean yourself before getting in the bath, per proper onsen etiquette

Asagama-no-yu Hot Spring
Onsen
👍👍 The 13 public baths dotted around Nozawa Onsen Town are the common property of the villagers. The public baths have been protected since the Edo period by the Yu-Nakama system, and are 100% natural hot springs. The hot springs are well managed and always clean. Both the villagers who use it every da...

OGAMA

👍👍 野沢温泉のシンボルの湯釜です。結構端っこの方にあるので宿によってはちょっと歩くかも。下からお湯がポコポコ湧いて自然を感じます✨ちょうど野菜を茹でてる地元の方に温度を聞いたら90℃との事💧確かに立ち入り禁止ですね💧

Panorama House Buna
Restaurant
👍👍 Situated halfway down Paradise, Buna has perfected the combination of good quality food and good views. On a blue sunny day, you can enjoy dining with beautiful scenery. On a windy snowy day, you can appreciate coddling in the heat and enjoying a hot bowl of miso soup.
Would recommend getting the N...

Sobadokoro Daimon
Soba noodle shop
👍👍 It was worth the hour in line.
I ordered the grated Japanese yam cold soba, regular size. The egg and yam, with the added wasabi dipping sauce was a whole new experience. It coated the soba and made it so silky. I couldn’t get enough of it! I’m not a big eater but I ended up ordering a second soba b...

Jyuodo-no-yu
Onsen
👍👍 Everyone is described in detail in the hot spring itself, so first let's talk about the locals.
I used about five public baths during my stay, and they were all very well maintained and I could feel the love of the locals.
Also, is the hot water too hot for us tourists to use? Shall I add more wat...
