This is the station were you ca ride the Arashiyama Scenic Romantic train! I recommend trying to get a spot to the right of the train as it does have more opportunities to have a scenic view! Great ride during the fall and spring!
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Saga Torokko Station is a charming little spot in Japan, It's part of the scenic Torokko train line, which offers a delightful journey through picturesque landscapes. The station has a cozy vibe, making it a perfect stop for travelers looking to soak in the local culture and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. With its quaint design and friendly atmosphere, it's a great place to take a break, snap some photos, and appreciate the slower pace of life in this lovely region.
RECOMMEND:
the romantic train starts from Saga Torokko Station and ends in Kameoka Toronto Station. since you're already here, grab a ride to the Hazukawa River Boat ride terminal and take a boat back to Arashiyama!
Klook has this option as a tour that include a ride from Kyoto or Osaka to the station, the pass to the romantic train, they'll pick you up after the the romantic train ride and will transfer you to the Hazukawa River Boat ride. after you finish the boat ride, you have time to explore Arashiyama before they pick you up to head back to Kyoto or Osaka.
