Area 04 · Kanayama Step-free

Kanayama

Three train lines, the bus terminal and Asunal — all at one hub, with one-train links to Centrair Airport and Nagoya Station.

Can I get to Centrair Airport and Nagoya Station from Kanayama? Yes, and it is one of the most convenient stations in Nagoya for it: Meitetsu trains run straight from Kanayama to Centrair Airport and to Nagoya Station with no transfer, so you can stay on one train with your luggage. The fare to Centrair is ¥910 (¥1,360 with the µSKY seat). Kanayama is also on the JR and subway lines, so it works well as a base for getting around the city.

Is Kanayama Station wheelchair accessible? Yes — JR, Meitetsu, the subway, the city bus terminal and Asunal Kanayama all have step-free routes and elevators, making this hub useful for wheelchair users, travelers with strollers or heavy luggage, and anyone with limited mobility.

Traveling with luggage or a stroller? JR has an elevator to every platform island, the city bus terminal is step-free from the station to every boarding bay, and Asunal Kanayama has five elevators on every floor. The one route connecting JR and Meitetsu’s west gate on the north concourse relies on a single elevator.
