Itinerary Help for 15 nights, unsure about the Alpine Route

Hi everyone,

I will travel solo arriving in Tokyo on Saturday, May 11th, and returning via Osaka on Sunday, May 26th, hence, 15 nights.

My plan is currently:

5 nights in Tokyo

1 night close to Mt. Fuji (Hakone)

I would like to do the Alpine Route

1 night in Kanazawa

1 night in Shirakawa-go

3 nights in Kyoto

1 night in Hiroshima

3 nights in Osaka

My doubt now is if I will have time to leave Hakone in the morning to Nagano, then to Omachi, do the whole Alpine Route to Toyama, and finally arrive in Kanazawa. I am not sure if it will be too rushed, and if I should take it easy and sleep 2 nights in Kanazawa.

Another doubt I have is regarding the JR Rail Pass as the price increased I am not sure if it´s worth it.

Currently, I have not booked anything (only the flight), and I am not sure if I should arrange everything as soon as possible, or wait a few months as it may be too early.

Thanks in advance!
