At Shinhotaka Ropeway, we sell Date and Time Tickets” with the aim of improving customer convenience and easing congestion, but from Saturday, April 18, 2026, we will be renewing the service toPriority Boarding Tickets,” which will allow customers to ride preferentially at a time that is convenient for them.
