Description
Limited Shuttle Bus on the Kumano Kodo Kohechi
This bus provides options for those headed northbound (Hongu to Koyasan) on the Kumano Kodo Kohechi route, especially when accommodation in Miura-guchi is unavailable. Miura-guchi is a small settlement with very limited capacity for people to stay overnight. The lodgings fill up quickly, especially in spring and fall. So Totsukawa Village offers a seasonal shuttle bus between Totsukawa Onsen and Miura-guchi for northbound Kohechi hikers. Using this shuttle walkers can spend two nights in Totsukawa Onsen and still do the full Kohechi without staying in Miura-guchi. This is a Morning bus from Totsukawa to Miura-guchi.
OPERATION DATES:
April 1~May 31, 2026
Oct 1~Nov 30, 2026
※ This plan is only for northbound service from Totsukawa Onsen and Miura-guchi.
