Get the Most out of Hakone with Freepass

Hakone-Yumoto Hot Spring Town
箱根湯本温泉街

It’s fair to call this Hotspring town the gateway to Hakone. It’s Hakone’s largest hot spring town, with a great number of hotels and inns along the two rivers that flow near the last stop for the Odakyu’s Romance Car, Hakone-Yumoto Station,. Shops selling souvenirs line the front of the station, and there are quite a few hot spring facilities available for day-trippers.

Hakone Tozan Railway
箱根登山電車

This is a mountain railway running from Odawara to Gora. There is a steep incline between Hakone-Yumoto Station and Kowakidani Station, so the railway climbs up it in switchbacks. From the window you can enjoy the ever-changing natural scenery of the seasons: the riot of blossoming hydrangea in the early summer and the blaze of autumn leaves in the autumn.

The Hakone Open-Air Museum
彫刻の森美術館

Overlooking the mountains of Hakone from 70,000 m² of spacious grounds, this outdoor museum exhibits over 1250 different sculptures. Arranged on the lawns, you can see massive works by modern and contemporary sculptors like Picasso and Henry Moore up close. This is the perfect museum for enjoying art alongside the grandeur of nature and its seasonally-shifting countenance.

Gora
強羅

You can enjoy the seasons in all their beauty in Gora, a new hot spring town in Hakone located on a plateau about 700 meters above sea level. Just a minute’s walk from Gora Station you’ll find the inn, “Ki no Yu Setsugetsuka”. At Setsugetsuka you can enjoy the hot springs of Hakone with their large communal hot springs baths and rooms with en suite open air baths. From here, it’s quite easy to get to tourist destinations like the Hakone Open-Air Museum and Owakudani as well.

The Cable Car
ケーブルカー

This cable car is the second oldest in Japan. It connects Goya with Sounzan, the ropeway’s departure station, and the journey lasts about 10 minutes. The step-style two-car trains are Swiss-made. Because you travel in a straight line while ascending to an altitude of 208 meters, you’ll understand just how steep the slope is when you look out the rear of the train.

The Hakone Sightseeing Cruise (“Hakone Pirate Ship”)
箱根海賊船

This cruise of Lake Ashi departing from Togendai is quite enjoyable. The tour ships, which are done up to look like pirate ships, do a round trip going from Hakone – Moto-Hakone- Togendai then back to Hakone. The ships currently in service are the Victory, modeled on a British battleship, the Vasa, modeled on a Swedish ship, and the Royal II, modeled on a French battleship.

Hakone Shrine
箱根神社（九頭龍神社）

This shrine dates back over 1200 years. The shrine is believed to offer good luck relating to traffic safety, the answering of earnest prayers, and the prevention of bad fortune with the encouragement of good, but it has also had as of late many female visitors due to its reputation as a “power spot” for better luck in love.

Former Hakodate Imperial Villa (Onshi Hakone Park)
恩賜箱根公園

From a lookout on a peninsula called Togashima that juts from Lake Ashi you can enjoy a spectacular view of Mt. Fuji and the Hakone somma volcanic mountain. Flowers bloom gorgeously throughout the area: azaleas around May and goldband lilies from summer into autumn. There are also many attractions in the area, such as the ruins of the Hakone checkpoint and the avenue of Japanese cedars where old Tokaido road once ran.

For your most impressive experience in Japan.
