Before getting on the train, we recommend you:
(1) Buy lunch at NEWDAYS next to the JR Kakunodate Station (the Express Moriyoshi sells sweets, drinks, souvenirs, and original goods for in-car sales).
(2) Make a reservation for the Utto Onsen Matagi-no-Yu shuttle bus (the shuttle will be at Ani-Matagi Station on your arrival. Reservations can be made for one person!)
Go through the ticket gate at JR Kakunodate Station, turn right at the exit, and go straight. You will see the Nairiku Line ticket window.
The tunnel runs through the "Junidan Pass," which is at the boundary of Kitaakita City and Semboku City. The total distance is 5,697m, the longest in Akita Prefecture.
There are no curves in the tunnel, just a straight line.
Near the peak of the slope, there is a moment when you can see the entrance and exit at the same time for a few seconds.
If you make a wish at this time...

Protecting Ani-Matagi Station? The Matagi statue which was sculptured with a chainsaw welcomes you.
Take a shuttle bus waiting in front of the station. It will take you to the Utto Onsen Matagi-no-Yu in about ten minutes.
Enjoy a 100% natural hot spring which warms you up to the marrow.
As it is expected in the "Matagi village," hot water comes out of the bear's mouth.
The "Matagi" are hunters who hunt bears and other animals in deep mountains for a living.
In particular, the Ani region of Akita Prefecture is known nationwide as a village of Matagi.
The Matagi Museum, which is attached to the Utto Onsen Matagi-no-Yu, exhibits Matagi's costumes and hunting tools, and you will be able to learn about the culture rooted in its area.
