Help on two rail trips. 2007/8/17 00:27
Hi, on September 3rd I will be travelling from Takayama to Hakone. I was wondering which is the quickest method of getting there using the JR rail pass?

I would also like to know the same thing for Hiroshima to Shimoda.

Thankyou.

1) JR Hida limited express from Takayama to Nagoya

2) JR Tokaido Shinkansen from Nagoya to Mishima, Atami or Odawara Station, from where you can access Hakone:

The Japan Rail Pass is not valid beyond Mishima/Atami/Odawara.

I would also like to know the same thing for Hiroshima to Shimoda.

1) JR Sanyo/Tokaido Shinkansen from Hiroshima to Atami. One or two transfers along the way.

2) Then take a train from Atami to Shimoda (Izukyu-Shimoda Station). The trip beyond Ito is not covered by the Japan Rail Pass:
