Oike Springs

Situated at the northern foot of Mount Kurodake within the eastern reaches of the Kuju Mountain Range, the Oike Springs serve as a primary source for the Asono River. This pristine water travels through deep subterranean layers for months, or even years, naturally filtering through the earth to emerge enriched with a sophisticated balance of calcium and essential minerals.

The landscape is a sanctuary of seasonal elegance. While the lush verdure of spring and the vivid tapestry of autumn are the most celebrated times to visit, the winter months offer a quiet, understated charm. During this season, the fallen leaves reveal expansive views of the crisp blue sky through the architectural silhouettes of the trees, a peaceful “hidden gem” experience for the discerning traveler.
