十二湖というと青池が有名ですが、個人的に外せないのがこの池です。青池の色が天候に左右されやすいのに対し、こちらは比較的安定してエメラルドグリーンの色合いを映し出してくれます。ここからの湧き水はおいしいのですが、2022年の気象災害で設備は破壊されてしまいました…

淡いブルーの池近くの沢の水音が森林とマッチしている。十二湖といえば真っ青に透き通る「青池」が有名なんですが、こちらの沸壺の池も青池に匹敵する透明度を誇る絶景スポット。青池だけを見て帰る方が多いのか、青池周辺の大混雑に比べ訪れる人も少なく、ゆっくりと見ることができるのでオススメです。駐車場はここには無いので、十二湖駐車場か落口の池の駐車スペースに停めて歩いて来て下さい。

青池は落ち葉で風景の魅力が少し落ちましたがこちらは水も流れてるので落ち葉も流れてるのかこちらのほうが青々とした美しい池でした青池から少し歩けばありますので青池落ち葉でがっかりされても少し先に行ってここを見てください
