The name "Noboribetsu" originates from the ancient Ainu word "ヌプルペッ" (Nupurupetsu), which means "white turbid river," a reference to the region’s milky, mineral-rich hot spring waters. One of its most famous sites, Jigokudani—also known as Hell Valley—is the dramatic remains of a volcanic eruption. Here, volcanic gases continuously escape from cracks in the grey-yellow rocky ground, creating an eerie and otherworldly atmosphere. The surrounding landscape is barren and scorched, with no vegetation due to the intense sulfur emissions, giving rise to the name "Hell Valley." The steamy, rumbling terrain offers a powerful visual of nature’s raw geothermal energy and is one of the most iconic sights in Hokkaido.
