What other travelers are saying about Kobe Nunobiki Ropeway
What a beautiful place. Its clean and very well operated.
Catch the cable car up to the top and see the best view you will get of Kobe.
Once your at the top, there are some rose gardens.
The journey back down the mountain by foot takes you through beautiful tranquil gardens of every sort.
This is a lovely way to escape the busy city and enjoy the gardens, the birds, the many bees and butterflies.
You can stop along the way and rest in hammocks, look at a waterfall, enjoy an ice cream and just take in all the beautiful sounds and fragrances.
This is a real gift to this city.
The path down the mountain can be steep in some places. This is not suitable for people in wheelchairs or have difficulty walking down slopes.
A MUST VISIT attraction for travellers near Osaka espacially elderly, or couple. Cable car provided one-way or both. I spent half day with my sister there during May which is still nice breathe even if most of the rose and hydreangea were still buds but many other species are also gorgeous. We can see 2 waterfalls during the back walking route. Prepare firm comfy walking/hiking shoes if you wanna choose to walk down the hill like us. This place were a chef kiss of our trip... you can not be disappoint. TOTALLY BEAUTIFULL!
A highlight of our time in Kobe.
Easy to find from the subway station.
We had not bought tickets in advance and easy to buy on the day.
Great view from the ropeway (cable car as we know them 🚠) up to the top. Not everything was in bloom this early, but still some colour and lots to see and learn about.
The Veranda restaurant was stunning. Amazing strawberry delicacies and an impressive tea selection. Excellent service too.
We slowly wandered down the hill and caught the cable car the rest of the way down.
Highly recommended
A must-visit for anyone who visits Kobe. Perfect for a stroll to take in the scenery and explore the garden. The area is quite large, and there is a lot of walking involved, so keep that in mind. Strongly recommend checking the weather forecast beforehand, as while there are umbrellas provided in the garden for free, it will be a much better experience to enjoy your scenic stroll rain-free. The stamp rally is neat and will bring you to iconic locations throughout the garden, so I recommended it (there are commemorative rewards for it as well).
A worthwhile visit while in Kobe for lovers of nature. We took the ropeway up one way and walked down.
The ropeways bottom station is a bit hot and crowded with people trying to get up, but given that this is a busy time of year I'm willing to bet it's not always that way. Once you're in (you get a car privately for your party, no sharing required) the views are phenomenal. It's not too fast and not too slow.
At the top, the gardens are nice to explore and there is a herb footbath open until 4:30pm with a great view! The souvenir selection is a bit small, for instance we're magnet collectors and were sad to find none.
On the way down the mountain, you can see a divine waterfall from a lovely viewing platform, so be sure not to take the ropeway both ways if you're interested in seeing it.
