Minami-Otari Station (南小谷駅, Minami-Otari-eki) is a railway station on the Ōito Line in the village of Otari, Kitaazumi District, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. The station is numbered "9".[2] The station is on the electrical borderline of the JR East and JR West systems and operations are shared between the two companies.[1] The section north of this station, operated by JR West is not electrified and all JR East services terminate here.
Prior to the March 15, 2025 timetable revision, one round-trip Azusa service per day (train numbers 5 and 46) also started and terminated at Minami-Otari. This train now only runs to Hakuba.[3]
