Japan Alp / Alpine Route 9-10 April 2016

I'm travelling to Alpine Route on 9-10 April 2016.
On the date I'm travelling there will be only partial route that is open. I wonder if it will be open if I travel from Shinano-Omach to Murodo and back (not crossing the snow corridor)?

Really? Where do you get that information from? Usually they don't publish it until later in the year.

I wonder if it will be open if I travel from Shinano-Omach to Murodo and back (not crossing the snow corridor)?

In recent years, the Shinano-Omachi to Murodo section was never opened before the opening of the entire route. I doubt that will be different in 2016.

In 2015, the section between Tateyama and Midagahara opened earlier than the rest of the route.

I assumed the route will be open around the same time of each year.
Maybe I will wait until they announce official operating schedule .
Thanks a lot Uji :)
