Yamagawachi Station is served by the Mugi Line and is located 58.4 km from the beginning of the line at Tokushima.[3] Only local trains stop at the station.[4]
The station consists of one side platform serving a single track. There is no station building, only a shelter on the platform for passengers. A flight of steps lead up to the platform from the access road. A ramp has also been built up to the platform but the path from the access road to the base of the ramp is unpaved.[2][3][5]

Japanese Government Railways (JGR) opened the station on 1 July 1942 as an intermediate station when the track of the Mugi Line was extended from Hiwasa to Mugi. On 1 April 1987, with the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, JR Shikoku took over control of the station.[6][7]
