I checked the weather forecast and made reservations before my trip. The bus was convenient as I could board directly. I was able to easily exchange my ticket for a ropeway ticket with almost no waiting, and I was able to board the ropeway without any problems about 15 minutes after the bus arrived. There were still some snow walls remaining at the top, so I was able to take a stroll around. If the weather had been a little better, I might have spent more time admiring the scenery, but I finished my walk and shopping and came down earlier than planned. I ate bread at a station along the way, but everyone lined up at the bakery at once, so it was crowded with people. There were plenty of seats, and it was nice to relax and look out the window. I would like to go again on a sunny day. It's quite far from Takayama. Most of the visitors were international tourists.
