Hi. Will be in Tokyo in January and is planning a day trip to Gala-Yuzawa on Jan. 5. Was checking Hyperdia for schedule of the train from Tokyo Station to Gala -Yuzawa but result kept showing there is nor route available. Is this an error on Hyperdia's part or is there no schedule on said date. Thanks.
Shinjuku to Niigata
Hi there,
Gala Yuzawa is a station which is only open during the winter season. I am not sure why it does not show up in Hyperdia. However you can use ECHIGO-YUZAWA station instead, which is very close.
Hope this helps.
Thanks Daniel-san. In the event that I have to get-off at Echigo-Yuzawa Station, how far would it be from Gala-Yuzawa Station? Are buses or taxis available? Thanks.
Hi again!
Here is a map to you can see the distance. It's not too far and there should be local trains traveling there. Otherwise a taxi would also be a possibility.
