Please read before making an inquiry:

1. This is a non-reserved bus; you cannot reserve a seat in advance. Please purchase your ticket on the day of boarding. If you board the bus at a stop without a ticket counter, you can buy your ticket onboard. We usually add extra buses on busy days, so there’s not much need to worry about it being fully occupied. But if you are concerned, please line up early to board the bus.

2.  We typically update this timetable in March. If the new schedule is not yet available, please be patient for its release. We kindly ask that you refrain from inquiring about the release of the new timetable, as we cannot provide more details than what is available on the timetable page. The timetable is not expected to change significantly from last year, so please refer to the timetable from the previous year until the updated one becomes available.

3. We do not accept reservation requests, regardless of the number of passengers or requests from travel agencies.

4. This bus has a luggage compartment where you can stow your suitcases. There are no restrictions on the number or size of items. Items such as ice axes, poles, pickaxes can potentially damage other passengers’ luggage. Please store them inside your backpack or carry them separately in a dedicated cover or bag. Loading and unloading of luggage is your responsibility.
