Kyoto to Amanohashidate

Hi Daniel,

I am planning to visit Amanohashidate from Kyoto in Dec. I saw some post said the route is cover by the JR pass and some said it will just cover partially.

I have come across two limited express train: Hashidate and Kinosaki, what is the different between the two and are both of them available at the Kyoto station?

Thanks,

Gloria
