Tenninkyō Onsen (天人峡温泉) is a geothermal hot spring village with a small onsen resort in the Daisetsuzan National Park, Hokkaidō, Japan.[1]
At 2023, only the restaurant/onsen is operating, other hotel buildings being closed off and derelict.
There are waterfalls nearby that attract a number of visitors, for example the 270 meter Hagoromo Waterfall (羽衣の滝, hagoromo no taki) and the Shikishima Waterfall (敷島の滝, shikishima no taki). There are also a number of popular hiking courses nearby.[2] A hiking trail head is located in the village that leads to the Hagoromo Falls, continuing further, hikers will reach another waterfall.[1] There are many hiking trails in the National Park.[3]
The onsen is located approximately one hour from the city of Asahikawa, and is accessible by car.[1] Limited public transportation exists within the National Park. Nearby hot springs include Sounkyo Onsen and Ashidadake Onsen.[4] Lodging is available in the area.
