4-days Alps Clossing Ticket (Shinhotaka Ropeway Route)

The Alps Crossing Ticket is a ticket that allows you to stop at a few places while traveling from the castle town of Matsumoto to the charming old town of Takayama. You can choose one of the following 3 routes: Kamikochi, Norikura or Shinhotaka Ropeway. It will certainly be a wonderful trip no matter which route you choose! You can travel from Matsumoto to Takayama as well as the other way around.

1.Shinhotaka Ropeway

You can board the double-decker gondola, which is the only one in Japan, and take a walk in the sky for about 12 minutes. With the mountains of the Northern Japan Alps at almost eye-level height and the feeling of the impressive Hotaka range up close, the 360-degrees panorama above the clouds at an altitude of 2,156m seems like a different world.

3.Hirayu Onsen

Hirayu Onsen lies at the foot of Mt. Norikura, 1,283m above sea level, and is one of the oldest and most historic hot springs of the Okuhida Onsen. There are about 40 wells/reservoirs in the Hirayu Onsen area, and about 8,600 liters of hot water is gushing from there per minute, which is more than 12,000,000 liters a day.
