What to expect
You'll meet your guide before dawn and set off into darkness with torches, ascending through quiet agricultural terraces. The climb takes around two hours at a steady pace. As you reach the summit, the sky shifts through shades of orange and pink—the reward for the early start. After taking time to absorb the view and eat breakfast, you'll make your way down. The second half of the day shifts mood entirely: sinking into naturally heated pools whilst gazing back at the mountain feels earned. The hot springs area is relaxed and unhurried, giving you proper time to recover.
Good to know
Wear sturdy trainers and bring a light layer for the cool pre-dawn ascent. Lunch is not included, so plan accordingly. The trek suits all abilities, but expect uneven terrain and a steady gradient. Spring water is naturally warm, not extremely hot.
