How to Get to the Ski Resort
From TOGORO, you can reach the Nagasaka Gondola, the main gondola in the resort, by taking the free bus or walking.
If you take the free bus, it’s a 10-minute ride from the Shinden Bus stop, which is just a 1-minute walk from TOGORO. If you walk, you’ll reach Nagasaka Gondola station in under 15 minutes(750 meters).
You also can reach the Hikage area by walking for about 20 minutes via Yu-Road (moving walkway).
Even though TOGORO is in the center of the village with lots of shops and restaurants, you can still easily get to the slopes.
