Please bring your lunch and drink! (There are no stores near the station)
Meet at the ticket gate of Surugaoyama Station on the Gotemba Line at 11:05AM.
>From Shinjuku, take the 9:01 express Odakyuu Line train (going towards Odawara) to Shin-Matsuda (arriving at 10:24AM). Walk to Matsuda Station (which has the JR Gotemba Line) and get on the 10:43 train. This train arrives at Surugaoyama at 11:04 AM.
(DEFINITELY get on this train because we can’t wait for the next one since they are infrequent.)
If you’d like to go from Shinjuku, get on the front of the 9:01 Odakyu Line express train at Shinjuku Station. David will get on the first car at the next station (Yoyogi Uehara).
We will hike from the station to the Yuujo Waterfall, then to the Ashigara Pass, and return to Ashigara Station (on the Gotemba Line). The hiking time itself is about 4 hours.
