Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden & Cable Car Ropeway Round Trip Ticket

The hippest tourist destination in Kobe right now,
Nunobiki Herb Garden & Ropeway

A place where you can enjoy the beautiful cityscape of Kobe by taking a 10-minute cable car ride from Hanboen Sanroku Station next to Shinkansen Shin-Kobe Station. Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden, a Kobe landmark and Japan's largest herb garden, is currently the most popular tourist destination in Kobe.

Nunobiki Herb Garden has a total of 75,000 flowers and herbs, about 200 kinds, in full bloom, and the flowers bloom according to the season. You can feel the scenery of the four seasons from the walking paths, flower beds, and hills. Also, since you can only see it by taking the ropeway, you can see the fantastic Kobe scenery on the way up.

Take the ropeway up

You can only see Nunobiki Herb Garden by taking the ropeway up. However, rather than going up, you can see the really great scenery while riding the ropeway. This is the first time I’ve been on a ropeway that offers such a great view, including the beautiful garden scenery blending in with the Kobe city view in the distance!

The ropeway stops at Kane no Oka Station once in the middle. When going up, I recommend taking it to the top, then seeing Nunobiki Herb Garden and walking back down, and then taking the ropeway back down at Kaze no Oka Station. The Nunobiki Herb Garden that you see while walking back down is also really pretty.

Reasons to go to Nunobiki Herb Garden

Nunobiki Herb Garden is a place that makes you feel like you're in the Netherlands, with beautiful flowers added to a European-style building. Nunobiki Herb Garden has various photo zones, and it's a place where you can heal just by walking around, as there are various flowers all year round.

Another attraction! The view of Kobe from Nunobiki Herb Garden is also really beautiful.

Be sure to visit the Veranda Cafe

The veranda cafe at Nunobiki Herb Garden is a must-visit. You can enjoy the wide open view of Kobe, and since it is an herb garden, the herb tea is really delicious. If you have a cup of herb tea at the veranda cafe and look at the view of Kobe, you will think that it was a good decision to come to Nunobiki Herb Garden.

From the ropeway coming down from Nunobiki Herb Garden, you can see a fantastic night view of downtown Kobe. Tickets purchased from Wag include admission to Nunobiki Herb Garden and a round-trip ticket for the cable car and ropeway, so you can enjoy both.
