- The Sagano Scenic Railway runs near the Hozugawa River. During the months of March and April, boughs of pink cherry blossoms sway above the passing train. In November and December, the trail is lined with flaming orange and red autumn leaves. The railway traverses seven kilometers, and the trip takes about 25 minutes one way as the train winds slowly through the mountains.
The Sagano Scenic Railway travels through the Arashiyama mountains. The train itself is of a nostalgic style, complete with wooden bench seats. It features one fully open car and four enclosed cars with the option of opening your personal window. After making a single trip on the Sagano Scenic Railway, you can choose from a number of exciting options for your return trip. Take a short bus ride from Kameoka Torokko station, the terminal train station to the docks of the Hozugawa River. Then, you can take the Hozugawa River cruise on your way back to Kyoto. A single ticket for the cruise costs ¥4100. Your final stop will be again Arashiyama, just outside of Kyoto.
The Christmas hat wearing tanuki are so cute.
Hi Jiahao! Yes, I agree! Seeing them added more fun to the whole experience! And thank you for watching my video! Hope you can check out my other videos too. Enjoy your day! 😊
Thank you RUclipsr san.
I was planning to take this train for my upcoming visit this spring.
Didn't know the train also runs during the night, would be a nice thing to do as well.
Hope you'll also upload the Sagano Romantic Train on night view too 😊
Hi Reyta! Thank you for visiting my channel and watching my video! I am really happy to hear that I was able to help you in my own small way. I do have a video of the night view of the Sagano Romantic Train. Here is the link:

I hope you can watch that too, and if you enjoyed them, it would really be nice if you could also like and subscribe to my channel. Thanks again, and if I could be of further help, just let me know. Enjoy your day! 😊
@@wheretonext1190 I've watched the night version, definitely will consider, glad I found your video.
I just checked your channel, if perhaps in the future you'd do Osaka food recommendation other than Dotonbori area, would be much appreciated.
It's really rare to find food options on youtube both from people who lives in Japan or visitor/tourist other than Dotonburi.
Dotonburi is a nice place, but I believe Osaka has other area with their authentic local dishes.
Keep up the good work 😊
Thank you so much Reyta for your kind words, and for your suggestion. I will definitely keep that in mind for my future videos. Admittedly, I am still a newbie with so much to learn in terms of quality of videos and interesting content, so I really, really appreciate it when I read comments like yours. Thank you so much again! Will really work hard to improve my channel for viewers like you. 💛
Hello! Love the video!! Which side has the better view? :) even or odd number?
Hi Geraldine! Thank you for watching my video and for giving such wonderful feedback! I really appreciate it. With regards to your question, depending on the direction of the train, I think the side nearer to the open greenery is much better. Although both sides are open and offer great views, you can take better pictures and videos from that side. My seat was 6A from Saga to Kameoka so yes, my vote will be for even number. 😊
I hope I was able to answer your question. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more travel videos. Thanks again! Enjoy your day! 😊
Thanks for sharing this. I'm amazed by the variety of train rides on offer in Japan. Need one suggestion: will this ride be scenic in April too? Regards
Hi Chirag! Thank you for watching my video and for visiting my channel. Yes, I agree. Japan indeed has one of the best train systems in the world, with so many options to choose from. With regards to your question, depending on which part of April you are visiting, the Sagano Romantic Train offers scenic views during both the Sakura season (usually end of March to 1st week of April) and autum season (mid Nov to mid Dec). You can still enjoy the train ride throughout the year of course, with the usual amazing views. Anyway, I hope I was able to help you in my own small way. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more travel videos. Thanks again! Enjoy your travels! 😊
@@wheretonext1190 thank you 🙏
Hi when did you take the train
I will be in kyoto 24 and 25 October, are the leaves usually autumn colours or will I be too early?
Hello nice video
Can you take the train back where you started? Is there a boat also you can take?
Hi Effie! Thank you for watching my video and for your positive feedback. I really appreciate it. With regards to your question, yes, you can buy another ticket and get on the train again to get you back to where you started. As to the boat ride, as far as I know, the Hozugawa River Boat Ride (Hozugawa Kudari) has been temporarily suspended since 31 March 2023. But in case they resume their operations, the boarding area is about an 8-minute walk from JR Kameoka Station.
I hope I was able to help you. In case you haven't, I hope you can also support my channel by subscribing. I have more Japan content coming up which you might find useful too. Thanks again Effie, and enjoy your travels! 😊
Can we buy advance tickets for the sagano romantic train?
If so, how and where to book?
Hi Kajika, thank you for watching my video. Regarding your questions, yes, if you want to secure the seats you like on your preferred dates, you can book your tickets in advance using this link.
www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/route_search/
After buying your tickets online, bring a printout of the email confirmation to a JR office when you arrive in Japan. They will give you the actual tickets there. Alternatively, tickets are also available at the train station, but they may not be the best seats anymore.
Anyway, I hope I was able to help you in my own small way. In case you haven't, I hope you can also subscribe to my channel. Thanks again for visiting my channel. Enjoy your travels! 😊
What month and day you visited in Sagano? I’m wondering how cold it is going to be. We are planning to visit 3rd week of December 2023
Hi! Thank you for watching my video! I rode the Sagano Romantic Train last 3 Dec 2022. It was ok during my daytime ride - I was just wearing a jacket. But during my night time ride, it was already a bit cold, especially that I was in the rich car with no windows. I saw a few people wearing winter jackets and even gloves, so you might want to consider bringing them too.
I hope I was able to help you. In case you still haven't, I hope you can also subscribe to my channel for more travel videos. My Japan content will resume on Apr 22. I hope you can watch out for them. Thanks again and enjoy your travels! 😊
Thanks!
No worries! 😊
Hi! May I know how you can book seats for the rich car?
Hi Jaet, thank you for watching my video. With regards to booking seats, you may use the following link.
www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/route_search/
You can choose the car and seats you like when you book your tickets. Just bring a printout of the email confirmation to a JR office when you arrive in Japan and they will give you the actual tickets. Alternatively, you can also buy tickets at the train station just before riding, but depending on the season, there is a big chance that tickets for the rich car are not available anymore.
Anyway, I hope I was able to help you. In case you still haven't, I hope you can also subscribe to my channel for more travel videos. My Japan content will resume starting April 22. Thanks again for visiting my channel! Enjoy your travels! 😊
MAy I know how long is the train ride to the bamboo forest station?
Hi Cecilia! Thank you for watching my video and for visiting my channel. With regards to your query, the whole Sagano Romantic Train ride, which consists of 4 stations, takes 23mins and cost JPY880. If you wish to take the Sagano train for only one station, that is Saga Torokko to Arashiyama Torokko (bamboo forest station), it would only take 3mins but the cost will still be JPY880. It is also just a 10-min walk.
I hope I was able to answer your questions. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more travel videos. Thanks again! Enjoy your travels! 😊
I fail to see the romance of this trip.
Hi! They must have their reasons why they named the train as Sagano Romantic Train. But yeah, thank you for still watching my video! I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel in case you haven't. Enjoy your day! 😊

Thank you for visiting my channel! Yes, I will check and see how to get those subtitles in my future videos. 😊
