Stroll through the hot spring town in a yukata with weeping willows
About this spot
A hot spring town about one train stop from Takeno, with a history spanning over 1,300 years since its opening. The landscape of weeping willows and wooden inns lining the banks of the Otani River is renowned as quintessentially Japanese hot spring ambiance. The town is famous for hopping between exterior public baths, and offers nostalgic hot spring town activities like dart games and arcades. Enjoy a taste of classical Japanese charm, quite different from the seaside atmosphere of Takeno. Spend the evening hours in a leisurely stroll.
Fireworks details
Name: たけの海上花火大会
Date & time: 7/30 (Thu) 20:00–20:50
Venue: 豊岡市・竹野浜海水浴場
2026年7月30日(木)開催、竹野浜海水浴場を舞台にした山陰海岸の夏の風物詩です。昼間は海水浴でにぎわう遠浅の浜が、夜になると花火観覧の特等席に姿を変えます。夜空に次々と開く大輪の花火は波打ち際からも間近に見上げられ、潮騒と花火の音が重なる臨場感は海辺の花火大会ならでは。日本海の澄んだ夜空に映える光の競演を、砂浜に腰を下ろしてゆっくり楽しみましょう。フィナーレの余韻とともに、竹野の夏の1日が締めくくられます。
Tips
荒天時は中止や延期の可能性があるため、当日の開催可否は主催者の発表で確認を。夜の砂浜は足元が暗いので懐中電灯やスマホのライトがあると安心です。終了後は駅や駐車場への道が混み合うため、少し余韻を楽しんでからの帰路がおすすめ。
Tips
About a 10-minute train ride from JR Takeno Station to Kinosaki Onsen Station. If you plan to visit the public baths, purchase bath tickets. Check train schedules in advance and allow time to return to Takeno without rushing.
Best time to visit
About 1 hour 45 minutes. Enjoy the weeping willows' charm in the afternoon's gentle sunlight.
