Remarks & Notes |
The Hakone Tozan railroad is a masterpiece of mountain railroading. The line begins at Hakone Yumate and heads up the mountain through a series of switchbacks to the town of Gora. Travelers can then take a funicular to connect with a ropeway that will take them down to Lake Ashi. The line's other achievement is how well the builders were able to hide it from ruining the scenic views around Hakone. |
