For access to Kurokawa Onsen, it's recommended to use the convenient direct bus service. The Kyushu Cross-Bus operates direct buses from Kumamoto Station and Hakata Station, allowing you to reach Kurokawa Onsen in about 3 hours. Additionally, there are numerous parking lots scattered around the area, making it possible to visit by car. However, each parking lot doesn't have a very large space, so it's recommended to use public transportation for sightseeing.

At Kurokawa Onsen, there are six free parking lots available, including the first to fourth parking lots, the Ryokan Association office front, and the new parking lot. The first to fourth parking lots and the Ryokan Association office front do not have much space, accommodating only about 20 to 50 cars, so it is recommended to use the new parking lot, which can accommodate about 150 cars and is located about a 10-minute walk away, during peak tourist season.
