The {{nihongo|Iwashimizu-Hachimangū Cable|石清水八幡宮参道ケーブル|Iwashimizu hachmangū sandō kēburu}}, officially the {{nihongo|Keihan Cable Line|京阪鋼索線|Keihan Kōsaku-sen}}, is a funicular line in Yawata, Kyoto, Japan, operated by Keihan Electric Railway. The line opened in 1926 as a route to Iwashimizu Shrine. Riders in January, the season of hatsumōde (New Year's Day visit to shrine), account for 50% of the whole year ridership.

Prior to October 2019, it was known as the {{nihongo|Otokoyama Cable|男山ケーブル|Otokoyama Kēburu}}.{{cite web|url=https://www.keihan.co.jp/traffic/news/ekimeihenkou/|title=京阪線駅名変更|website=keihan.co.jp|access-date=1 October 2019|language=ja|archive-date=29 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190929132751/https://www.keihan.co.jp/traffic/news/ekimeihenkou/|url-status=dead}}
