The usual route is Fukuoka to Aso and back, with Kurokawa as the soak at the end of a crater and grassland day. Bring a small towel, since most outdoor baths assume you have one, and clothes that are easy to get in and out of.
Compare two Kyushu day trips from Fukuoka, with Yufuin’s old-fashioned train, Beppu’s steaming hot springs, and time to explore.
