Japan 2015 Ice Wall – Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

A long trip from Tokyo to Tateyama alpine route with the Shinkansen, normal train, funicular, bus, walk. So first don’t leave Tokyo after 10h, or you will have to run all the time to pick up the last trains, last bus and have only a few minutes to walk between the ice walls. I left Tokyo at 10:30 and came back at 22h, too much running to appreciate the trip. I was disappointed to see that the trains always so perfect for transfer, there they were perfect but for the opposite. Funicular arrives at 14:32, train leaves at 14:30, obliging you to stay in the shops of the train station. Finally the walls because of the hurry, the typhoon Nour had no time to impress me.
