Could be worse things than being stuck in Myoko! smile

The train transfer is pretty simple as well mate that’s how I did it. My lodge owners gave me a lift back to Myoko station. I then jumped on a local train, made one transfer to a different local train straight to Nozawa station. There are then busses that can take you into Nozawa Onsen Village (in my case the lodge owner came and picked me up!)

Make sure ya go to Togari Nozawa Station though!!!!!

* I haven’t been that way, but from Nagano that’s the station ya have to disembark on, as there is also another station called Nozawa that is not the right one!!!!!

Correct me if I’m wrong Dave, as I used the buses, but from memory that’s how the train system went?????

Nope you are correct! I’m having a bit of a mind blank on the station I had to transfer at as well but Togari Nozawa is definitely the correct one!

Edit:
Doh how could I forget hyperdia (mind is in NZ/Yankee mode)
