Yubatake Hot Springs - Kusatsu Onsen, Japan (Cam 1)

This live webcam overlooks the famous Yubatake hot spring field in Kusatsu Onsen, one of Japan’s most renowned hot spring towns. Located in Gunma Prefecture, the camera captures the steaming thermal waters flowing through the wooden channels that cool the naturally hot spring water before it reaches the town’s bathhouses.

Yubatake, meaning “hot water field,” is the central landmark of Kusatsu Onsen and one of the most recognizable hot spring scenes in Japan. Mineral-rich water flows 24/7 from the ground, creating dramatic steam clouds and a unique landscape of wooden flumes and pools in the town.

Visitors from across Japan and around the world come to Kusatsu to experience its traditional bathing culture, historic ryokan inns, and healing thermal waters. At night, the Yubatake area becomes especially atmospheric as lights illuminate the rising steam and surrounding streets.

One of Japan’s Most Powerful Hot Springs: Kusatsu Onsen produces more than 30,000 liters of hot spring water every minute, making it one of the highest natural hot spring outputs in all of Japan.
