How to travel between Iga Ueno and Kyoto

By Japan Railways (JR)

Take the JR Nara Line from Kyoto to Kizu (35 minutes) and then the JR Kansai Line to Iga-Ueno (45 minutes) with a transfer at Kamo Station five minutes into the journey. At Iga-Ueno Station, change to the Iga Tetsudo Iga Line to Ueno-shi (5 minutes). The entire trip takes about 90 minutes and costs 1360 yen (1110 yen for JR and 250 yen for the Iga Tetsudo). There is generally one connection per hour.

By Kintetsu Railways

Access by Kintetsu Railways is slower and more expensive than by JR, but it is fully covered by the Kintetsu Rail Pass and as far as Iga-Kanbe by the Kansai Thru Pass. From Kyoto, take an express train along the Kintetsu Kashihara Line to Yamato-Yagi (60 minutes) and transfer to the Kintetsu Osaka Line to Iga-Kanbe (45 minutes). From Iga-Kanbe take the Iga Tetsudo Iga Line to Ueno-shi (25 minutes). The entire trip takes about 2.5 hours and costs 1700 yen. There is generally one connection per hour.
