Local Bus Timetables

Bus Timetables

The main Shikoku Kotsu Buses operate out of the Awa-Ikeda Bus Terminal in Ikeda and connect between the areas of Oboke & Koboke, Nishi-Iya, and Oku-Iya. Most of these Shikoku Kotsu Buses operate every day.

Each area also has its own Local Miyoshi Municipal Buses which operate only within those areas (and do not connect between areas), and offer access to other points which the Shikoku Kotsu Buses do not go. Many of these Local Buses have seasonal schedules and/or operate at different times on weekends and holidays.

Oku-Iya Seasonal Buses

Niju Kazurabashi (Double Vine Bridge)
and Tsurugisan (Minokoshi)
For Niju Kazurabashi (Double Vine Bridge) and Tsurugisan (Minokoshi)

*The main Shikoku Kotsu Buses to/from Ikeda, Oboke, and Nishi-Iya have their final/first stop in Oku-Iya at Kubo . To access the deepest points of Oku-Iya, it is necessary to transfer to the Local Municipal Buses. These local buses operate everyday on the route going from Kubo to Nagoro (Scarecrow Village). But beyond Nagoro to Niju Kazurabashi (Double Vine Bridges) and to  Tsurugisan (Minokoshi) these buses operate on seasonal schedules that may not be every day. 

- Also, there are a few other seasonal buses linking the final stop in Oku-Iya (Tsurugisan Bus Stop at Minokoshi) with the neighboring towns and their train stations. See how and when to go below:

Local and Seasonal Buses in Oku-Iya:
For Nagoro (Scarecrow Vil.), Niju Kazurabashi (Dbl Vine Bridge), and Tsurugisan (Minokoshi)
The Local Miyoshi Municipal Buses of Oku-Iya operate only within the Oku-Iya (Higashi-Iya) area, and they do not link to Nishi-Iya. Essentially, the Local Bus times connect to the times of the 4 main daily Shikoku Kotsu Buses to/from Ikeda.
Most Local Buses start in Kyojo Map and depart a couple minutes after the main Shikoku Kotsu Bus coming from Nishi-Iya passes, following it along Rt 439 to Kubo Map (where the main Shikoku Kotsu Bus ends) and then the Local Buses continue on to their regular* last stop at Nagoro Map (Scarecrow Village). The Local Buses between Kubo and Nagoro operate every day all year. Usually the transfer wait time in Kubo is only a couple minutes, and the transfer is also possible in Kyojo and Ochiai.
To go beyond Nagoro: Oku   Oku*
• From early April to late November on every Saturday, Sunday, and National Holiday, as well as several full weeks in the spring, summer and autumn, two of the Local Miyoshi Municipal Buses per day continue past Nagoro up to the Niju Kazurabashi Map (Double Vine Bridges) and then on to Tsurugisan Map (Minokoshi & Mt Tsurugi base).
• Aside from weekends and holidays, these buses also operate every day in Golden Week (late April to early May), and every day from mid-July to Aug 31, and every day from Oct 1 to Nov 6 (in 2022). The exact dates each year are anounced in late March or early April.
• During other times when the buses do not operate the extended route, it is possible to walk up the road from Nagoro to the Niju Kazurabashi (Double Vine Bridge) in about one hour each way.
The times for these Oku-Iya Local & Sesonal Buses can be found on the Iya Valley Bus Routes timetables above.
JR Sadamitsu Seasonal Buses to/from Tsurugisan:
JR Sadamitsu Station (Tsurugi Town) to Tsurugisan (Minokoshi), with transfer at Tsuzuro-do
The buses between JR Sadamitsu Station Map and Tsurugisan Map (Minokoshi) are on Saturdays, Sundays and National Holidays ONLY and NOT every month. The exact operating dates for each year sometimes changes, and they are announced in late March or early April.
The usual operating dates are: Sada
• Spring: every Sat, Sun, & Holiday from mid-April to late May (including every day in Golden Week, about Apr 29 - May 8) ,
• Summer & Autumn: every Sat, Sun, & Holiday from early-July to late-November (including every day during Obon week, about Aug 11 to Aug 15).
• There is a bus transfer about halfway at Tsuzuro-do Map but it is easy to understand.
• There are about 3 buses per day on this route and takes about 2 hours total. The fare is ¥2000 for the full trip.
• A couple of the buses also make an extra trip between Tsurugisan and La Foret Tsurugi Hotel only.
The times for the JR Sadamitsu - Tsurugisan Seasonal Buses can be found on the Iya Valley Bus Routes timetables above.

*The seasonal buses connecting JR Anabuki Station and Tsurugisan (Minokoshi) were suspended for 2022 and it is unknown if they will restart in the future. Buses still operate daily from JR Anabuki to the base of Mt Tsurugi (Kawakami Bus Stop), but its a long hike up which first goes over Mt Ichinomori. Check the Mt Tsurugi page for details on this route.
For travel between JR Anabuki Station Map and Tsurugisan Map (Minokoshi) requires a change of buses at Takinomiya Bus Stop Map (the final stop on this line from JR Sadamitsu is at Kawakami Map ). The bus from JR Anabuki to Takinomiya (and to Kawakami) is 3 times per day, everyday all year, but the Takinomiya to Minokoshi bus Ana is ONLY once per day in:
• Spring: every day in Golden Week, usually late April to early May;
• Summer: every day from mid-July to end of August;
• Autumn: every day from 2nd Saturday in October to first Sunday in November.
• For travel during other times, the bus from JR Anabuki to Kawakami Map is everyday (3 times per day) and from Kawakami it is about a 40 minute walk up the road to Koritori Trailhead Map where the trail leads to Mt Ichinomori Map (about 4hrs up, or 3hrs down) and onward to Mt Tsurugi Map. Check the Mt Tsurugi page to see a trail map of this route.
The times for the JR Anabuki - Tsurugisan Seasonal Buses can be found on the Iya Valley Bus Routes timetables above.
