Location
History
Gōra Station opened on 1919-06-01 as the upper terminus of the Hakone Tozan Line. The connecting Hakone Tozan Cable Car, which it now also serves, began running on 1921-12-01, suspended operations from 1944-02-11 to 1950-07-01 as a wartime non-essential line, and resumed thereafter. The present alpine-lodge-style station building opened on 1977-04-16 and was named to the Kanto Top 100 Stations selection in 1997. Operation transferred to Odakyu Hakone on 2024-04-01 as part of an Odakyu Group restructure of its Hakone-area businesses.
Notes
At 541 m above sea level the station holds the altitude record for ordinary railway stations in Kanagawa Prefecture; the placard formerly read 553 m before a 2013 re-survey corrected the figure.
