Route Bus Ogizawa

Please read before making an inquiry:

1. This is a non-reserved bus; it is not possible to purchase or reserve tickets in advance. Please purchase your bus ticket on the day of travel and then join the boarding queue. Boarding is on a first-come, first-served basis, and purchasing a ticket does not guarantee that you will be able to board your preferred service. If you board the bus at a stop without a ticket counter, you can buy your ticket onboard.

2. We typically update this timetable in late March. If the schedule for next year 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. 

5. We don’t operate this bus in winter season, please inquire Omachi City Tourism Association for more information.

6. For travelers from ANA Holiday Inn Resort Kuroyon Hotel to Shinano Omachi Station and Ogizawa, please use this bus timetable, not the Nagano – Shinano Omachi/Ogizawa line. The nearest bus stop to the hotel is the “Hinatayama Kogen” bus stop.

7. Only one bus departs at each scheduled time.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: I plan to take a bus from Shinano Omachi Station to Omachi Onsenkyo and stay there for one night. Can I use the ticket I bought at Shinano Omachi Station for the bus to Ogizawa to board the bus from Shinano Omachi Station to Omachi Onsenkyo, and then the bus from Omachi Onsenkyo to Ogizawa?
