Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route with 82 year old 2017/1/27 11:20
I'll bring my mother (82 years old) to Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route next May 2017.
Will it be problem for her?

If you go on slower pace and is not too much for your folk to walk thru stairs in the cable car and say in the mountains, why not?

*Spoiler alert* Show her these blogs so that you know what to expect:

Thank you for information
It looks like we have to walk through stairs up to get cable car.
Is there any other easier way to get cable car ?

(82 years old) is relatively "young". Last year I met some one in that age walking the Kumano Kodo. And a few years before saw a group of people in that age doing The Shikoku Pilgrimage.
If your mom is healthy, and walks unaided, visiting Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route ought to be no issue.
