Very Strong! The Current Gorge Of Hell You Feel The Active VolcanoOwakudani
Clouds of white smoke and strong smell of sulfur forming from rugged rocks. You can see these activities of the volcano very near. Owaku-dani is the site of explosion crater made by eruption of Hakone Volcano 3000 years ago.◎There're parking lots, you can go by car, but it's nice to use a ropeway to see the great view of Owaku-dani.
Owakudani is now crowded with people after the partly lifting of entry control. It's just the strongest powerful spot where people can enter now, a spring named 'Shinsen-no Yu' and Enmei Jizo-son, at the gate to the plot of volcanic smoke which is now closed down. After cleaning your hands in the warm spring, you can pour the spring over Jizo-son and pray... You'll be so refreshed!◎Access: check out the latest situation of entry control and open in HP of Hakone town. Attention: be careful about volcanic gas poisoning. Parking: available
