Kuranagi Onsen in Kurobe Gorge

I took the Kurobe-kyo Tetsudo (Kurobe Gorge Railway) into the Japan Alps in Toyama recently.

Here's a picture of the narrow-gauge railway.


Here's the view from the last station in the gorge.



I visited Kuranagi Onsen while I was in Kurobe Gorge. It's a fantastic onsen in an incredible location.

Here is a picture of the path to the onsen. It hugs the mountain wall. You can only reach the onsen by walking.


Here's another picture of the path.


Here is the reward.
