From the bus parking area to the entrance of Kenrokuen Garden, there is approximately a 10-minute walk one way.
Some areas within Kenrokuen Garden (around Mt. Saigyo, the Meiji Monument, and Mt. Yamazaki) are currently closed due to damage from the Noto Peninsula earthquake and for safety against aftershocks.
Access to the Shirakawa-go Observatory requires a local shuttle bus (not included, to be paid on-site). Due to traffic or shuttle service conditions, it may not be possible to visit the observatory—thank you for your understanding. The shuttle bus may also be suspended without notice due to snow accumulation, ice, poor visibility, road conditions, etc. The shuttle bus is not available on days when the Shirakawa-go illuminations are held.
