Hase (Kanagawa)

No publicly available departure data for this station.

Hase Station opened on 16 August 1907 on the Enoshima Electric Railway. The station was rebuilt in 1985 with a new station house on the mountain side (the previous one had stood on the track-1 side). IC-compatible automatic ticket gates were installed in October 2006 and were renewed in September 2015 to the GX8-series Odakyu-specification model. A train-arrival indicator board was added in December 2018 and the current station building, themed "the Enoden that becomes a postcard," was completed in April 2020. On 23 January 2023 a temporary gate on the south side became permanently usable; on 17 February 2024, in preparation for CTC introduction, the internal level crossing was closed and gates were split by direction. Hase carries station number EN12.

Hase is the closest station to several of Kamakura's flagship sights, including the Kamakura Daibutsu (Great Buddha) at Kōtoku-in, Hase-dera (Hase Kannon), and the Goryō Shrine, and attracts heavy tourist traffic year-round. Until 23 January 2023 the southern (track-1) gate was a temporary entrance used only during peak periods, but it became fully operational on that date; on 17 February 2024 the in-station level crossing was closed and platform-to-platform transfers within the paid area became impossible. Track 1 has no toilet, so passengers needing to use one must speak to a member of staff at the track-2 gate. A two-storey building beside the gates houses a coffee-chain outlet and a used-clothing store.
