History

Hakone-Yumoto Station opened on 1 June 1919 with the Hakone Tozan Railway line from Yumoto to Gōra; the site had earlier hosted an Odawara Horse Tramway terminus from October 1888. The tramline between Odawara and Yumoto was converted to a full railway in 1935. Through Shinjuku services via the Odakyu Odawara Line began on 1 August 1950, and the platforms were reconfigured for 20-metre six-car Odakyu trains on 12 July 1982. Hakone Tozan cars stopped operating to Odawara on 18 March 2006, and Odakyu commuter expresses ended on 15 March 2008. A new bridge-style building opened on 14 March 2009, and station operations transferred to Odakyu Hakone on 1 April 2024.

Notes

The station sits at the electrical boundary between the 750-volt Gōra side and the 1500-volt Odawara side of the Hakone Tozan Line, with a dead section near Iriuda where the dual-gauge track splits into narrow and standard gauges.
