Exploring the expansive wilderness surrounding Mount Yotei in Ghost of Yotei provides players with numerous opportunities to enhance their character's survival capabilities. Among the most critical landmarks scattered across the landscape are hot springs, which grant permanent boosts to your maximum health upon resting. Tracking down all 16 locations ensures Atsu can withstand demanding encounters against formidable opponents.
Finding Hot Springs in the Yotei Grasslands
The starting region of the Yotei Grasslands contains four hot springs that offer crucial early-game health upgrades. Players can locate the Horizon View Hot Spring along the southern coastline, while the Yotei's Shadow Hot Spring sits nestled near a peaceful pond within the Shikotsu Woods. Heading further north reveals the Wild Clearing and Hidden Cliff hot springs, tucked away near scenic hillsides and mountain borders.
Exploring the Ishikari Plains and Tokachi Range
Moving into the central territory of the Ishikari Plains reveals several hidden baths like the Bear Rock Hot Spring and Kappa's Hot Spring hidden among river bends and forest groves. Further north, travelers can stumble upon the Smoky Mountains Hot Spring near the White Deer Woodlands, as well as the Cloud View Hot Spring situated near the end of the Rumoi River. Crossing into the elevated Tokachi Range rewards adventurous explorers with the Quiet Valley and Grassy Fields hot springs, both offering unique talismans alongside vitality gains.
Venturing into Teshio Ridge and Northern Reaches
The rugged cliffs of Teshio Ridge feature specialized resting points, including the bath located inside the Red Crane Inn. Adventurers traversing this cold region can also discover the Black Bowl Hot Spring surrounded by red forests, along with the elevated Valley View Hot Spring near Hana's Farm. Additionally, the isolated Nayoro Wilds holds the Cave Path Hot Spring, providing a quiet retreat for weary travelers exploring the region.
Unlocking Coastal Springs and Final Rewards
Reaching the late-game Oshima Coast area unlocks the final two locations: the Distant Castle Hot Spring beneath ancient fortress walls and the Cliff View Hot Spring overlooking the sea. Resting at every single hot spring across all regions rewards players with the unique Fundoshi outfit and unlocks the Body, Mind, and Spirit achievement. Taking time to systematically visit each location turns challenging battles into manageable encounters as your total health reaches its absolute peak.
