Takimotokan Grand Bath
1 expert tipTakimotokan Grand Bath Day Pass is a day pass that opens Noboribetsu's most extravagant onsen complex to non-hotel guests, with five mineral-water types, open-air pools, saunas, and a heated swimming area under one roof. The defining moment is soaking with the volcanic walls of Jigokudani just beyond the windows and outdoor baths.

Plan your visit BEFORE YOU GO
Plan your Takimotokan Grand Bath visit
Allow 3h for the visit, then add the journey.
The time above is Fyno’s curated visit allowance. Add the approach, queues, booked sessions and the return.
Plan the approach
Check the connection to the hotel rather than only the nearest rail station. A day linking the two areas needs time for the transfer and for any ryokan dinner deadline. [5]

Hotel parking can be reserved for staying guests when it fills. The Jigokudani public lot is directly across the road and is the dependable backup, so do not circle the narrow onsen streets waiting for a space.

Choose what fits your day
Treat Jigokudani and the Oyunuma footbath as distinct walks with current access checks. Keep to permitted paths around geothermal water; choose a hotel bath when a path is closed. [5]

Takimotokan Grand Bath Day Pass is a day pass that opens Noboribetsu's most extravagant onsen complex to non-hotel guests, with five mineral-water types, open-air pools, saunas, and a heated swimming area under one roof. The defining moment is soaking with the volcanic walls of Jigokudani just beyond the windows and outdoor baths.
Treat this as a proper half-day reset rather than a quick rinse after the geothermal walk. Towels are included, the bath zones vary in temperature and mineral character, and the pool gives families a less formal break between soaks. Day visitors receive entry during the published daytime window even though overnight guests have longer bath hours.
How long should I allow for Takimotokan Grand Bath?
Fyno’s curated allowance is 3h. It excludes the approach, queues, any required booking and your return journey.
Is this selected in a saved route?
It appears on Day 5 in the 11-day Hokkaido Road Trip default. Other durations can change membership and stop order.
