Kawara no Yu is a public bath house located close to the Shima river and is simply a short stroll from Sekizenkan Ryokan. From the main road there are stairs that descend to the lower level where you can gain access to the bath. The place is opened between 9am to 3pm every day of the year and is free of charge! The lower deck offers up-close views of the rushing Shima river, however there is also an upper deck where you can comfortably take a seat, relax and see the river flowing by the village.
