[2025 Hakone ] Travel Guide for Yumoto (Updated Jun)

#spa Hakone in Kanagawa Prefecture is famous for its hot springs, and you can fully experience the healing and relaxing atmosphere. If you only go to Hakone Yumoto, you can go back and forth in one day from Tokyo, and transportation is convenient. Hakone Yumoto is a mountain pass and the only way to enter the Hakone scenic area. Hakone Yumoto Onsen is the largest hot spring town among the 17 hot springs in Hakone. There is a waterfall street full of hot spring atmosphere, a bustling shopping street in front of the station with souvenir shops, and the Fujiya Hotel which even the emperor loves to visit. Overlooking the beautiful Hayakawa River, there was a red bridge called "Hitabashi Bridge" but it was renamed "Hydrangea Bridge" in 1996 in order to further develop Hakone, which has many hydrangea spots. For day-time hot springs, choose Hakone Kamon (かもん), which has an open-air pool and is very comfortable. It’s a rare opportunity to take a self-guided trip to Hakone, so you can’t go back empty-handed, right? We recommend that you spend more time strolling around the Hakone Yumoto Shopping Street, which has 70 shops, cafes, and souvenir shops. The must-eat hot spring buns and fish cakes in Hakone are also sold there.

#autumngoodplace During this trip to Tokyo, I celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday🫶I planned a two-day, one-night trip to Hakone, a suburb of Tokyo, in autumn. We left our luggage at the hotel in Tokyo and brought only a change of clothes and a few supplies to Hakone to avoid the hassle of carrying our luggage up the mountains and down the lake. The route is as follows: 🌟Day one: Shinjuku Odakyu Electric Railway—>Hakone-Yumoto Station—>Gora Station—>Sounzan Station—>Owakudani—>Gora Station—>Fufu Hakone 🍀Depart from the hotel to Shinjuku Odakyu Railway Station 🍀Take the Odakyu Romantic Express Observation Seat train GSE70000 to Hakone-Yumoto Station (1 hour and 20 minutes) - If you want to sit on the observation seat, you must buy a ticket (limited express ticket) on the Odakyu Electric Railway official website (available in Chinese) one month in advance, and payment must be completed to be successful. But I wasn’t fast enough and couldn’t get the first row. Although I sat in the third row, I still managed to take a picture of the beautiful Mount Fuji. - The limited express ticket must be used in conjunction with a bus ticket or a free pass. It is recommended to purchase the Hakone Free Pass, which can cover most of the transportation costs in Hakone. Since we did not have time to go to the Odakyu Ticket Collection Center during business hours, we did not buy online and chose to buy from the ticket vending machine in Shinjuku Odakyu Station. Please note that the date of purchasing the pass from the ticket vending machine can only be calculated from the day of purchase and cannot be pre-purchased. 🍀Arrive at Hakone-Yumoto Station and transfer to the Hakone Tozan Railway🚋Arrive at Gora Station (takes about 37 minutes) 🍀Transfer from Gora Station to Hakone Tozan Railway🚠 to Sounzan Station 🍀Transfer to the Hakone Ropeway at Sounzan Station🚡If the weather is good, you can see the super beautiful volcanic smoke scenery along the way to Owakudani. 🍀Owakudani - If you want to enjoy the volcanic smoke more closely, you can make a reservation online to enter the Owakudani Nature Research Trail. There will be a dedicated guide to explain the volcano, 4 times a day, 40 minutes each time. (Open subject to weather conditions) - If the weather is good, you can see Mount Fuji - For snacks, try Owakudani black eggs. I heard they taste just like ordinary eggs, so you can buy them as a check-in. In addition, I saw many Japanese buying yellow egg ice cream from the store farthest from the cable car station. Since I had bamboo charcoal ice cream, I didn’t try it. 🍀Take a ride back to Gora Station and be picked up and dropped off by a special car from Fufu Hakone and check into Fufu Hakone 🌟The next day: Fufu Hakone—>Gora Station—>Sounzan Station—>Owakudani Station—>Togendai Station—>Togendai Port—>Motohakone Port—>Hakone Shrine—>Heiwa Torii Gate—>Bakery & Table —> Hakone Yumoto Hot Spring Street 🍀It rained the next day. Fortunately, I went to Owakudani the day before. The route today was a downhill route. 🍀After arriving at Gora Station, repeat yesterday’s route to Owakudani Station, then transfer to the Descend Aerial Ropeway🚡 to Togendai Station 🍀Transfer to the Lake Ashi Pirate Ship at Togendai Port, and you can ride a regular seat for free when you purchase the Hakone Free Pass. We upgraded to a special cabin, which costs an additional 600 yen for adults and 300 yen for children. They have priority to board the ship. 🍀Although there is a little rain and strong wind, the scenery of Lake Ashi is also beautiful. You can go to the deck to enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides of the lake, and the cabin design is also very gorgeous. 🍀Arrive at Hakone Port and transfer to another ship to Motohakone Port 🍀It took about ten minutes to walk to Hakone Shrine. I didn’t go up because it had to climb up 😂 🍀Going down is the check-in hotspot Kaiwa Torii. I queued for about 30 to 40 minutes. I can ask the next group of passengers to help me take pictures. By the time I arrived, the weather had improved, there were blue skies, and the scenery was beautiful. 🍀Back we just passed the famous bakery Bakery & Table along the road to buy bread. 🍀Take the bus from Motohakone Port to Hakone-Yumoto Station 🍀Wander around Hakone Yumoto Hot Spring Street 🍀Take the Romantic Express back to Shinjuku Key information: 📌Hakone Freepass: Adults 6,100 yen, Children 1,100 yen (ticket vending machine) 📌Odakyu Romantic Express limited express ticket 1,200 yen (can be reserved online 1 month in advance) 📌Owakudani Nature Research Road (reservation required online) ticket price 500 yen (reservation available 2 months in advance) #Overseas travel #Japanese attractions #Japan travel #Hakone

You can sometimes hear the clanging of machinery in the shopping district in front of Hakone-Yumoto Station. That's when the castella buns, a specialty of Kikugawa Shoten, start to be baked. You can watch them being baked up close, so it's fun just to watch, but we recommend buying one and trying it. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, you can enjoy the juicy taste along with the sweet bean paste. This is the only place you can eat freshly baked ones. #Hakone #HakoneYumoto #Souvenir #CastellaBunju #SupportTourism #SupportTourism

Nestled in the southwestern part of Kanagawa Prefecture within Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, Hakone unfolds like a meticulously framed landscape painting, centered around the 1,438-meter-high Mount Komagatake. This is no ordinary hot spring town but a 40,000-year-old natural masterpiece sculpted by volcanic forces—where ancient eruptions have transformed into emerald lakes and steaming vents that whisper tales of the earth’s breath to modern travelers. Hakone’s magic lies in its four-season theater. In spring, the Hakone Tozan Railway’s "Romancecar" glides through tunnels of pink cherry blossoms. Summer paints Lake Ashi in jade hues, with cedar-lined paths offering natural coolness. Autumn sets the mountains ablaze with red leaves, visible from the ropeway between Sounzan and Gora.

There are many different types of pizzas to choose from, including the standard Margherita. The Hakone Bismarck is especially recommended.

This is a recommended meal for when you visit Hakone-Yumoto. #Hakone #HakoneYumoto #SupportTourism #SupportTourism

There are lots of hydrangeas along the Hayakawa River in Hakone Yumoto. The pink ones seem to have bloomed early because they're in a sunny spot.

#Overseas Travel-Hakone under Mount Fuji Taking the two elders abroad to soak in hot springs requires a lot of preparation beforehand. The hot spring hotels in Hakone are very famous. Not only tourists come here, but many locals also make a special detour to visit. That’s because Hakone is located near the foot of Mount Fuji. Mount Fuji was originally an active volcano but has only become dormant in recent years. Therefore, the temperature of the underground spring water is extremely high and it contains rich minerals. 🙂 The hot spring eggs here are black. The store owner demonstrated by dropping a raw egg into very hot spring water. In about ten minutes, the egg gradually turns black at a speed visible to the naked eye. 😳The store owner said that this is because the spring water contains a high concentration of sulfur. When sulfur meets eggshells, it will oxidize into calcium sulfide, and calcium sulfide is black. I asked the shopkeeper in Mandarin, would people turn black if they soaked in these hot springs? The shop owner asked me with a smile, "Is your skin made of calcium?" 😏 also explained that people who take the spring water will not only not get darker, but will become whiter and whiter. Sulfur is a strong oxidant and has a bleaching effect. The sulfur concentration in the spring water here is just right. Look at how white the skin of the Japanese is... Before the shop owner finished speaking, the two elders said they were not leaving, they were a little tired, and they wanted to go back to the hotel to soak in the hot springs, leaving me and my husband alone 😑 #Overseas Travel
