Michi-no-Eki facility operational updates

Overview

Michi-no-Eki facilities in Japan have announced various operational changes. In late August 2026, Michi-no-Eki Shirataki scheduled a temporary closure of its shop and restaurant for equipment maintenance, though restrooms and stamp stations remained accessible during the local Anji-kun no Furusato Matsuri festival.

By mid-September 2026, Kita no Michi no Eki announced modified operating hours for the period of September 18 to September 27. While most facilities, including Spa Kohaku and Kokage Cafe, maintained extended hours from 9:00 to 21:00, operating times were reduced to 9:00 to 19:00 between September 23 and September 24. Restrooms at the facility remained available 24 hours.

Looking ahead to October 2026, Kita no Michi-no-Eki has released its schedule, noting that the main facility will generally operate from 9:00 to 19:00, with extended hours until 21:00 on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. On the October 12 public holiday, most services, including SPA KOHAKU and the cafe, will close early at 19:00. The entire facility is scheduled to be closed on October 13. The month will also feature specific amenities and special events, such as hot yoga sessions and pizza-making experiences.
