Map

Directions

By Train

Get yourself to Takachaya (高茶屋) Station. It is two stops south of Tsu Station on the JR Kisei Main Line. Be warned that trains stopping here run roughly only once an hour -- buses from Tsu Station run more often than this.

From the station platform, you will be able to see the large Jusco sign. Exit the station, turn right, walk for a bit and soon you'll come to a road that crosses the train tracks. Take this road and it will lead you to Sun Valley.

By Bus

For those without cars, bus is probably the easiest way to get there as the buses run more frequently than the JR trains.

To catch a bus to Sun Valley, go to the east exit (JR side) of Tsu Station and wait at bus stop #2. Buses bound for Karasu-kōen (香良洲公園), Tempaku (天白), or Sun Valley (サンバレー) itself will get you there. Buses bound for Yonezu (米津) will get you almost there but not quite -- it's about a 20 minute walk from the Yonezu bus stop to Sun Valley.

The last bus back to Tsu Station is around 9:00pm

By Car

Sun Valley is located on one of the most major roads in Mie Prefecture and so is pretty easy to get to. It is on Route 23 between Tsu and Matsusaka. It is about 1/3 of the way from Tsu to Matsusaka, and is located directly east of the Hisai area.
