Kanie Foot Onsen

The water is free-flowing from a natural hot spring, so the quality is undeniable. 👍 There's no temperature control, so it can reach 45°C in the summer. Even in winter, you'll sweat if you stay in for too long. I think the 10:00 start time is a little late. ★一１ It's open until 8:00 PM, but the staff shut off the hot water at 7:45 PM. Enjoy the remaining 15 minutes lingering in the afterglow. If you want a quick warm-up, this is the place. If you have plenty of time, it's a three-minute walk. The baths are run by the Owari Onsen Tokai Center, the company that manages them. Today, there were a lot of rude people. Two groups of men in their 30s with children. They both had wet feet, leaving the seats and verandas soaked. They only dried their own feet. They both put their shoes on the veranda and walked around. After them, a man in his 50s wiped his feet, but didn't wipe the seats, leaving them soaking wet. He calmly rested on the bench behind. Can't he see he's wet? I don't want people like this to come.

This beautifully maintained footbath is located along Owari Onsen Street. On the day we visited, a group of three women were using the bath. When we asked them about their experience, they said it felt wonderful. *There was a guide sign there, so we've included a quote from it. ●O-ZUMO-STREET Look below the sidewalk! You'll see sumo wrestlers' footprints. Why not compare them? ●Kanie no Sato Footbath Enjoy a footbath for beauty, health, and human interaction! - Kanie Town - *The footbath facility's grounds are provided free of charge by Owari Onsen Kanie Hospital, a medical corporation. The hot spring water used in the footbath is provided free of charge by Toho Enterprise Co., Ltd. (Owari Onsen). - Kanie Town - Also, across the street is the Green Course [Footbath Kanie no Sato] bus stop. The fare is free. That's great!

The parking lot is located in the west parking lot of the adjacent Owari Onsen (not in front of the building, but on the ground level one lot past it), and it's only a 5-minute walk. (Parking and the footbath are both free.) The footbath is shaded and cool even in summer. It's 100% natural hot spring water, and the temperature gets quite high in summer, reaching about 45°C. Those with heart conditions should be careful. There's also a temporary toilet just a short walk away. The breeze is pleasant, and because it's natural hot spring water, you can relax completely even with just the footbath. I can't believe there's such a fun place in Kanie! If I lived nearby, I'd definitely want to come here often.

Free foot bath with natural hot spring water 🥹✨ Apparently, you can park your car in the parking lot at Owari Onsen, which is a little further away. *Even though it's close, I recommend not using the hospital parking lot right next door. Because it's natural hot spring water, the temperature isn't adjusted, and I've heard regulars say things like, "It's hot today..." or "It's just right today." You may have to wait if it's busy. Because it's natural hot spring water, it smells of sulfur ✨ I hope it doesn't become too famous... It was the best foot bath 😊✨

I'd been curious about it for a while, and when I happened to be passing by while my feet were cold and I was holding a towel, I decided to drop in. Honestly, it's the best! The water is straight from the source, so it smells like hot spring water, and although it's a little hot, it warmed my feet and made me really happy. Because no water is added, it can get quite hot in the summer, reaching around 45 degrees, but in the winter it's great! I recommend it to everyone! Also, the parking lot is a little far away.
