Where to buy your Hakone Free Pass
You can enjoy Hakone as a one day trip. But we recommend taking a accommodation. Hakone is one of the beloved resorts in Japan. If you stay 2 days in Hakone, you have to buy a free pass.
There is more information about where to buy it here. The “Odakyu service center”, that’s one of the places where you can buy your free pass. Maybe it is not easy for the international tourists to find it. If you buy your pass just before the start of your trip to Hakone, we recommend to take plenty of time. Shinjuku station is the one of the biggest and most crowded stations in Japan (maybe in the world).
