Michi-no-Eki Noroshi is a roadside station in Noroshi-machi, Suzu City. It reopened in 2025 after the earthquake and heavy rain. The facility website and prefectural tourism information describe weekend operation on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with Monday through Thursday closed. Operating days and hours are reduced and may change. Plan a stop here around its opening days when heading toward Rokkosaki Lighthouse (禄剛崎灯台).
An October 2025 article on the prefecture’s official tourism website lists Friday 12:00–16:00 and Saturday and Sunday 10:00–17:00.
