All Reviews of Oyunuma Pond (Niseko Yumoto Onsen)

As soon as I arrived at Oyunuma Pond in Noboribetsu, I was captivated by the scenery. White steam constantly rose from the water, while a faint sulfur smell filled the air. You could really feel the power of volcanic geothermal activity. It was my first time seeing volcanic terrain this close, and I was filled with excitement and wonder.

Walking along the trail offered different views of the steam slowly rising against the lush green mountains, creating a truly unique natural landscape. After listening to the guide, I learned how hot the spring water is and gained a better understanding of Noboribetsu Onsen’s abundant geothermal resources. The trip offered not only beautiful scenery but also a fascinating learning experience.

This place is super unique! The whole pond is steaming, and there's a strong sulfur smell, but it really gives off that hot spring vibe. It honestly feels like watching a giant natural pot boiling water, lol. There are trails around the area, and when I visited in winter, the steam with the snowy scenery was just beautiful. The smell can be a bit intense though, so I wouldn't recommend staying too long. Overall, it's a really impressive natural spot. If you're into geothermal landscapes, you'll definitely think it's cool.

Oyunuma Pond is in the Niseko Yumoto Onsen area. The sulfur smell is strong and there's steam everywhere, really showing off the power of geothermal nature. It's an awesome place to see unique landscapes and experience hot spring culture.
