This is a little, very enchanting train station within wonderful nature, where you actually change from the local train to the cable care that brings you up to Koyasan and the entire Mt. Koya region. Unfortunately in this case, transfer times in Japan are very short (what is not a bad thing at all) so you won't have much time to appreciate the beauty of this little neat place.

This is where you transfer from Nankai Train Line to Koyasan Cable Car. Take a deep breath and enjoy the nature surrounding you. Something great waits ahead!
If you travel by train from Osaka to Koyasan, you have to transfer to the Cable Line at Gokurakubashi station. Since 1930 this funicular takes you through the woods to the 330 meters higher Koyasan station (and from there by bus to the village of Koyasan). A nice alternative to the long, winding (de) tour.
Well organized station. Staff is prepared to deal with foreign tourists (:
Efficient link up between station and cable car.
JR Pass doesn't include use on the Nankai Koya line. If in Osaka you can buy tickets at Nankai sections of the Namba and Shin-Imamiya stations to get to Koyasan (via Gokurakubashi Station).
