I stayed at Yokoyaonsen Ryokan while hiking Mt. Tateshina, and it was an incredible experience. Nestled on the mountainside, the ryokan is surrounded by lush nature and offers easy access to several hiking trails that lead to beautiful waterfalls. After a day of exploring, the onsen was a perfect way to unwind, soaking in the hot springs with the serene mountain views.

If you’re someone who loves the outdoors and enjoys the peaceful atmosphere of a traditional Japanese inn, I highly recommend this place. The combination of cozy tatami rooms, delicious Japanese meals, and the tranquil hot spring baths makes it an ideal retreat.
