Tsurugi-dake Schedule & Expenses
Mt. Tateyama (立山) & Mt. Tsurugi-dake (剣岳) Schedule & ExpensesThese 2 peaks can be easily done in a weekend, and this is what I did, leaving on a Friday night from Shinjuku and returning back to Tokyo late on Sunday night. The only glitch was that it was on the three-day Sports Day weekend in early October, and because the transport services along the Tateyama-Kurobe Alpine Route on that Sunday were CRAZY crowded, I lost over 2 hours waiting for the Tateyama cable car at Daikanbo. More details on this trip, including pics & maps are on my main Mt. Tateyama (立山) & Mt. Tsurugi-dake (剣岳) page. Thanks for visiting. Mt.
