Senjojiki Cirque has an only one-week point. This place is not good access from Tokyo. Especially, you go to hard by train. We recommend using a highway bus from Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal (Basuta Shinjuku) to Komagane Interchange. After you arrive at Komagane Interchange, you should go to Suganodaira Bus Center. Form Suganodaira Bus Center, you can get a bus on a regular route to the ropeway station.
