• JR Nippo Line: Minami-Nobeoka ⇄ Totoro

Asahigaoka opened on 13 March 1988 as an additional station on the existing Nippō Main Line. On 1 June 1996 the launch of the Miyazaki General Railway Operations Department moved it from JR Kyushu's Ōita branch to the Kagoshima branch. On 1 April 2022 it transferred again to the new Miyazaki branch.

Asahigaoka is an unstaffed single-platform halt on the mountain-side of the track; the platform faces the new Asahigaoka and Ichigaoka housing estates to the west, while National Route 10 and a coastal windbreak forest hide the sea immediately to the east near the entrance to Nobeoka New Port. The simple log-cabin-styled shelter houses a waiting area and a single short-distance ticket-vending machine.
