Mindful meoweler tips

Kusatsu Onsen - A hot spring town

Experience the traditional Japanese hot springs and the sulfuric scent from the waters. Don't forget to wear a yukata and geta! (traditional clothing)

Taste the traditional Kusatsu onsen manju

A delicious steamed cake filled with red bean paste. One of the most famous souvenirs from Kusatsu.

Visit Yubatake - The heart of Kusatsu Onsen

See the largest hot water field in Japan and the source of the hot springs. Don't miss out on the water performances throughout the day!

Kusatsu Kokusai Ski Resort - A winter wonderland

Hit the slopes and enjoy the beautiful panoramic views of Mt. Shirane. Don't forget to warm up with some hot amazake! (sweet, low-alcohol Japanese beverage)

Ubiquitous Yaki - The perfect street food

Grilled octopus balls filled with savory fillings, a staple of Japanese street food. Be sure to try Kusatsu's version with locally sourced ingredients.
