July 7th–July 9th

Iwanai Shrine Annual Festival Now Underway

The Iwanai Shrine Annual Festival, fondly known locally as the Iwanai Festival, is a beloved community celebration.

The schedule runs with the Eve Festival on the 7th, the Main Festival on the 8th, and the Return Festival on the 9th; portable shrine processions take place on the 8th and 9th.
For the rites honoring Sarutahiko no Mikoto and Uzume no Mikoto, attendants are chosen from the cohort facing their critical 42nd year.

On the 9th, the national highway is closed to traffic so two portable shrines can charge up “Jinja-zaka” in one breathtaking dash.

The town-designated intangible folk cultural asset “Akasaka Yatsu” is another festival highlight.

For detailed schedules and information, please check the Iwanai Shrine website.

Don’t miss this once-a-year opportunity!

Iwanai Onsen wins the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Prize in the Onsen General Election 2023!!!

Iwanai Onsen ranked first in Hokkaido by total votes 👏 and placed fifth nationwide in the ‘Smooth Skin’ category 👏.
In addition, its past activities were recognized with the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Prize.

The Onsen General Election is a citizen-participation project to revitalize hot spring areas, held since 2016 with the endorsement of five ministries and agencies (the Ministry of the Environment, the Cabinet Office, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the Japan Tourism Agency).

Iwanai Onsen is a natural hot spring with high temperatures averaging 42–47°C, where you can fully enjoy free-flowing spring water. One attractive feature is that two different waters gush from the foot of the same mountain. One is a bicarbonate spring derived from rainwater that has seeped through the mountains and enriched with minerals. The other is a chloride spring originating from the sea, enriched by the ocean’s bounty. Both waters contain natural mineral components known to offer high benefits for beauty and health, and they fill the baths pure and untreated, without dilution or reheating.

In the Iwanai Onsen area, Takashima Ryokan achieved:
Hokkaido overall vote: 1st place 👏
Nationwide ‘Smooth Skin’ category: 3rd place 👏
Nationwide ‘Proud Dinner’ category: 3rd place 👏
Nationwide ‘Seafood’ category: 2nd place 👏
Nationwide ‘Solo Travel’ category: 1st place 👏
It ranked highly across these categories.

We hope this helps more people learn, “Oh, I didn’t know Iwanai Town has hot springs!”
And we hope many people will take this opportunity to visit Iwanai Onsen.
