Access

Access Katsuo-ji Temple via the Hankyu Senri Line to Kita-Senri Station, the Kita-Osaka Kyuko Railway and Osaka Monorail to Senri-Chuo Station, or the Kita-Osaka Kyuko Railway to Mino-Kayano Station, followed by the Hankyu Bus Route 29 (Kita-Setsu Reien・Kibo-ga-oka Yonchome bound; 3 round trips on weekdays, 6 on weekends and holidays) or Hankyu Bus Route 30 (direct to Katsuo-ji Temple; 2 round trips on weekdays, 4 on weekends and holidays) to the "Katsuo-ji" bus stop. Please note that during the first three days of the New Year, significant traffic congestion on Prefectural Road 4 and Prefectural Road 43 may cause service disruptions. The section between Aou Danchi, Oku, Katsuo-ji, and Kibo-ga-oka Yonchome may experience complete service suspension. Therefore, New Year's visitors should either walk from the foot of the mountain, take a taxi, or use a private vehicle. Until the New Year of 2018, a temporary "Katsuo-ji-guchi" bus stop was available, requiring a 1.5km uphill walk from the stop. Alternatively, it's a 15-minute drive from Mino Station on the Hankyu Mino Line, or a 10-minute drive from Saito Nishi Station on the Osaka Monorail Saito Line. From Mino Station or Mino-Kayano Station, take the Hankyu Bus Saito Line/Mino-Sanroku Line Route 36 to the Gain (Gein) bus stop and walk for approximately 70 minutes via the old approach. From Ibaraki-shi Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line or Ibaraki Station on the JR Kyoto Line (Tokaido Main Line), take the Hankyu Bus Shinobucho-Charsaku Line Route 85 to the Oku bus stop, then walk for approximately 100 minutes via Prefectural Roads 4 and 43.
