Hi there!
All of the places you list will be covered by the Japan Rail Pass except for your trip to Shirakawago. To get to Shirakawago you'll need to take the [Nohi bus from Takayama] (round trip ¥4300). Here's a breakdown of the rest of your trip for you:
JR ticket cost: ¥45,470 for 7 legs
You can look up precise train timetables and costs at the Hyperdia travel planning website and learn how to use Hyperdia for JR Pass holders through our video blog.
Hope this helps!
