Lines

Shintetsu Dōjō Station is served by the Shintetsu Sanda Line, and is located 8.5 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Arimaguchi, 28.5 kilometers from Minatogawa and 28.9 kilometers from Shinkaichi.

Station layout

The station consists of one side platform serving a single bidirectional track. The station building is elevated and is located on the edge of a hill, with a residential area on the west side and a bus stop on the hill directly accessed by stairs from the station building. In anticipation of double-tracking, the platform is designed so that it can be remodeled into an island-type platform with two tracks in the future.
