Hako Ticket Hakone: is it worth it? (2026 calculator for all 20 places)
Short answer: the Hako Ticket costs ¥5,500 per adult for 1 day (¥2,000 per child), ¥7,300 for 2 days and ¥9,800 for 3 days, and lets you enter 20 hot springs, museums and sights in Hakone as often as you like. Most single entries cost ¥500–¥2,800, so an adult needs about 3 or 4 places in one day, including a pricey one like Yunessun or Ryuguden, before the 1-day ticket pays off. The big three museums (Open-Air, Pola and Okada) are not included. Tick your plan below to compare. Prices from Hakone Navi (Odakyu Hakone) and each place's official page, checked 2026-10-11.
Tick every place you will enter during the whole ticket (for a 2-day ticket, both days). Each place counts once: the ticket allows repeat visits, but most people go once.

Hako Ticket prices
| Ticket | Adult | Child | Adult break-even |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | ¥5,500 | ¥2,000 | ¥5,500 of entries in one day |
| 2 days | ¥7,300 | ¥3,000 | ¥7,300 over two days |
| 3 days | ¥9,800 | ¥4,000 | ¥9,800 over three days |
- Smartphone only. You buy and show it in Odakyu's EMot app or website. There are no paper tickets and it is not sold at stations or at the facilities.
- Child means age 6 to 11 in the official terms. Junior high school students (12+) need the adult ticket, although several museums let them in for the child price, so the ticket is worth less for them.
- The 2-day and 3-day tickets are much better value per day (¥3,650 and about ¥3,267 per adult per day). They suit an overnight stay.
- Places can change hours or limit entry at short notice. Check each place before you go.
All 20 places and their normal prices
Prices you pay at the door without the ticket. Where a place changes its price by date, the table shows the lowest price for that day type, so the real saving can be a little higher.

Ichinoyu has two inns on the list (Shinanoki and Susukinohara); they share one price, and one receipt gets you into the other Ichinoyu inns the same day, so they are one line here. Yunessun and Mori no Yu sell a combined "Passport" at the door (adult ¥3,500 on A days, ¥3,700 on B days); the calculator uses it when you tick both.
Not included: the big three museums
- Hakone Open-Air Museum: not on the list. Buy online for the lowest price: Open-Air Museum tickets.
- Pola Museum of Art: adult ¥2,200 at the door, ¥2,000 if you buy an advance ticket (official page).
- Okada Museum of Art: adult ¥2,800 (official page).
If your day is built around these three, the Hako Ticket will not help. A Hakone Freepass still covers the trains, cable car, ropeway, boat and buses between them: Hakone Freepass calculator.
Hakone Freepass "Hako Ticket" Plus
Odakyu also sells the Hako Ticket together with the digital Hakone Freepass as one set, for 2 or 3 days. It is cheaper than buying both separately.
| From | Days | Plus set (adult / child) | Freepass + Hako Ticket bought separately | You save (adult / child) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shinjuku | 2 | ¥13,100 / ¥4,100 | ¥14,400 / ¥4,600 | ¥1,300 / ¥500 |
| Shinjuku | 3 | ¥15,500 / ¥5,100 | ¥17,300 / ¥5,850 | ¥1,800 / ¥750 |
| Odawara | 2 | ¥12,000 / ¥4,000 | ¥13,300 / ¥4,500 | ¥1,300 / ¥500 |
| Odawara | 3 | ¥14,400 / ¥5,000 | ¥16,200 / ¥5,750 | ¥1,800 / ¥750 |
The Shinjuku version includes one Odakyu round trip from Shinjuku to Odawara. The Romancecar seat fee is extra: see Hakone Romancecar tickets. Before your first use you can cancel online for a ¥220 fee. There is no 1-day Plus set.
Who should buy it
- Buy the 1-day ticket if you will enter about four places in one day, or one expensive hot spring (Yunessun, Ryuguden, Hakone Yuryo, Konohana no Yu) plus two or three museums.
- Buy the 2-day or 3-day ticket if you stay overnight and like hot springs: two baths a day already come close.
- Skip it on a classic one-day loop (Tozan Train, cable car, Owakudani, ropeway, pirate ship). The loop leaves time for one or two places at most. Plan the day with the Hakone day trip itinerary.
- Skip it for young children on their own ticket: entry for elementary school children is cheap (often ¥400–¥800), so ¥2,000 rarely pays off unless Yunessun is in the plan.
