Introduction|Jozankei Onsen

You can hop on and off freely along the route, whether you want to visit Hoheikyo Onsen or Kogane-yu Onsen!
To get to Jozankei, you can take either the reservation-only Kappa Liner or the regular Jotetsu Bus.
If you choose the Kappa Liner, it’s recommended to ask your hotel front desk to help make the reservation by phone.
