Leisurely explore the "Water Town" where Kurobe's groundwater springs gush from alleyways

About this spot

The Ikiji district of Kurobe City is known as the "Spring Water Town," where clear groundwater from the Kurobe River, which originates in the Northern Japanese Alps, naturally springs up to the ground surface. Spring water points are scattered throughout the village's alleyways, and water selected as one of Japan's "100 Famous Waters" by the Ministry of the Environment continues to sustain local life. A walk through town enjoying the murmur of spring water is the perfect cool respite during a hot summer afternoon. The everyday scene of locals drawing water remains a memorable moment from your trip. With spring water points scattered throughout a compact area, walking while searching for points with a map is an enjoyable route for parents and children.
