Yunohanazawa [Hot spring] - Yunohanazawa

Japanese: 湯ノ花沢[温泉] - ゆのはなざわ

A hot spring in Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, southwest Kanagawa Prefecture. Gypsum spring, 55-87°C. It springs at an altitude of 1000m on the eastern foot of Mt. Komagatake. It is the highest hot spring in Hakone and is known for its excellent views. A natural spring was discovered in the Meiji period, but full-scale development began after a modern inn was built in 1958. The spring springs from a crack in the andesite lava, and the name comes from the fact that hot spring deposits were harvested there. Guests can enjoy hiking at Mt. Benten, Mt. Futago, and Mt. Komagatake, as well as sightseeing at Lake Ajigaike, Lake Shojiike, and Lake Ashi. There is also a golf course and a skating rink nearby.

Japanese:

神奈川県南西部，足柄下郡箱根町にある温泉。セッコウ泉，55～87℃。駒ヶ岳の東麓に広がる標高1000mの地にわく。箱根の温泉では最高所にあり，展望のよいことで知られる。明治期に自然湧泉が認められていたが，本格的な発展は1958年に近代的な旅館ができてからのことである。源泉は安山岩の溶岩の割れ目からわき，名称は湯の華を採取していたことに由来する。弁天山，二子山，駒ヶ岳などの登山，阿字ヶ池，精進池，芦ノ湖などの遊覧が楽しめ，付近にはゴルフ場，スケート場も設けられている。
