Our guide

Geto Onsen in Iwate is a hot-spring village with traditional ryokan and natural hot-spring baths. It was founded in 1134 and is among the oldest establishments of its kind in Japan. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.

We have not checked a public-transport route or road access, so look for local information before you go.
