Japan’s northernmost island of Hokkaido is known for a few things: beer in Sapporo, skiing in Niseko, ubiquitous uni (sea urchin) and beef.
Lesser-known is the isle’s sulphurous, belching and bubbling Jigoku-Dani, or Valley of Hell, a 24-acre geothermal crater that formed from the eruption of Mt Kuttara some 20,000 years ago. Located within Hokkaido’s Shikotsu-Toya National Park, where roiling lava pits and simmering black sulphur calderas quietly lurk under a thick blanket of snow, it certainly might sound like a vision of hell to some. But Jigoku-Dani, 112km south of Sapporo, is also many people’s idea of heaven. It’s home to dozens of onsen (natural hot water baths) that range from simple steamy streams in which travellers can dip their cold toes to modern hot basalt baths where you can meditate over snow falling on bonsai trees.

Not to be confused with the more famous Jigokudani on Japan’s main island of Honshu, where snow monkeys bathe, Hokkaido’s Jigoku-Dani is another flavour altogether. Unlike Japan’s traditionally tranquil onsen, which overlook serene scenes of cherry blossoms or scarlet maples, Jigoku-Dani’s baths have rugged primordial backdrops of bubbling geysers and steamy caves. And they’re especially prized for their variety. Nine different types of thermal water can be found in Jigoku-Dani’s onsen town of Noboribetsu, including acidic iron, alkaline, salt, radium and melanterite springs. Some are even prescribed by balneologists to heal various medical conditions including bronchitis, neuralgia and eczema.
