located in the city of Sapporo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The Shikotsu-Toya National Park is characterized by topography and phenomena created by volcanic activity. The park includes two of Japan\u2019s most famous caldera lakes, Lake Shikotsu and Lake Toya; as well as the Mt. Tarumae, Mt. Yotei and Mt. Usu volcanoes; its characteristic topography and phenomena is created by volcanic activity and the hot springs dotted around the area.
Amidst this, the Jozankei area, located along the banks of the Toyohira River approximately 26 km south of \u2013 or one hour by car from \u2013 downtown Sapporo, is one of Hokkaido’s most famous hot-spring resorts. The area is mountainous, with volcanoes such as Mt. Muine, Mt. Soranuma, and Mt Sapporo, on which alpine plants grow. It is hoped that as many people as possible can experience this abundant natural environment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/jozankei.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/02\/ad30f03b2722b996a497188115112edb-1600x761.png\")

Hot spring gushing out in the Jozankei spa resort areas contains sodium chloride (neutral hypotonic hot spring) featuring its colorless and transparency, and mild amount of salt. It is one of the most common spring quality in Japan. When you soak into it, you will find your body becomes warm from inside, That is because the salt content sticking to your body prevents the sweat from evaporating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\nThe history of Jozankei OnsenHistory<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n1866
A hot-spring source encountered by ascetic monk, Miizumi Jozan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The history of Jozankei Hot Springs dates back to Keio 2(1866), when Miizumi Jozan, an ascetic monk, discovered the hot springs and opened a healing spa in upper Toyohira River. Jozan cut through the forest to develop the land and put a great amount of work into bringing injured and sick people to the spa for healing. Eventually his enthusiasm led up to building bridges and roads, and little by little the spa\u2019s reputation spread out.
When the industry of mining and lumbering arose and many workers arrived into the area, restaurants and shops started to increase in number. In 1918, Toyoha Mine opened and Jozankei Railroad was laid, crossing 29.9km between Shiroishi village and Jozankei. Thereafter, the area, blessed with splendid nature and bountiful waters continued to grow into one of the finest hot spring spa in Hokkaido.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
