Tokyo-Takayama-Kanazawa-Osaka?

Hi,
We will be traveling with the JR pass and I was wondering if it was feasible to do a Tokyo - Takayama - Kanazawa - Osaka trip in a day?
We would leave from Tokyo early and it doesn't really matter if we arrive to Osaka late.
Or should we plan to spend the night at Kanazawa? Any insight would be much appreciated!

It is theoretically possible, but you will have virtually no time for sightseeing. This is how the day could look like:
Take a local train to Shin-Yokohama before 6am
06:00 depart Shin-Yokohama by Hikari
07:26 arrive Nagoya
07:45 depart Nagoya by Hida limited express
10:02 arrive Takayama
12:50 depart Takayama by non-JR bus (3390 yen one way)
15:05 arrive Kanazawa
OR
13:15 depart Takayama by JR train via Toyama
15:45 arrive Kanazawa
20:35 depart Kanazawa by Thunderbird limited express
23:12 arive Osaka
Note that many sights in Kanazawa will close soon after your arrival in the city. Kenrokuen is open until 18:00.
Definitely not recommended to the average tourist!

You only have 2 hours in Takayama, there are many places you can visit in Takayama as well as Kanazawa. You can consider to stay in Takayama one night and do a day trip to Shirakawago (if you want) then move on to Kanazawa for a night. Or stay in Takayama and do a day trip to Kanazawa then move on to Osaka the next day. Shirakawago http://whenshetravelstheworld.blogspot.sg/2013/12/japans-golden-route-...

Thank you very much for the advice. We unfortunately only have one day to kill. As a last question, would you recommend Kanazawa or Takayama?

Si tu pars de Tokyo assez tôt (6h00) par le nozomi, tu peux être à Takayama pour 10h00 en changeant de train à Nagano.
La visite de Takayama demande environ 3 heures si tu te contentes de visiter les rues Sannomachi et Takayama jinja. Il en faudra deux de plus si tu veux aller à Hida no sato et passer une journée compète si tu veux voir aussi les temples de Higashiyama.
Il faut ensuite compter trois heures et demie de trains pour aller à Osaka...
Pour Kanazawa, c'est plus compliqué car plus long pour y aller. (près de 5 heures de train de Tokyo).
Personnellement, pour une journée, je n'irai pas dans ces villes au départ de Tokyo.
Dans le Kansai, il y a également des villages anciens qui sont intéressants à visiter... et moins loin.
