History

Nikaho Station opened on 30 June 1922 as Ugo-Hirasawa Station on the Japanese Government Railways' Rikuusai Line, in what is now the city of Nikaho, Akita Prefecture. The station was renamed Nikaho on 1 April 1968. With the privatisation of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, control passed to JR East. A new station building was completed in June 2001. The station consists of one side platform and one island platform connected to the station building by a footbridge, and it remains staffed. In fiscal 2018 it averaged 261 boarding passengers per day.
