Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Mount Fuji has a total of ten stations, with an altitude of 2305 meters. The fifth station is located on the mountainside. It is the highest point reached by ordinary non-climbing tourists, and you can see the sea of clouds. You can also send a postcard at the small post office at the highest altitude, stamped with the unique postmark of Mt. Fuji, which is very meaningful. [In winter, the ice and snow of Mt. Fuji stop at the first station, and you can take you to the highest point officially allowed in Japan]
Special notice: Due to the annual Japanese mountaineering season, the toll road leading to the fifth station of Mt. During this period, when boarding the fifth station, you can only park your car in the designated parking lot at the foot of the mountain, and go up the mountain by shuttle bus. The round-trip bus fee is 1860 yen per person. Fees are at your own expense.

A peace memorial park with a shrine and a great place to view Mount Fuji. The Churei Pagoda at the top of the mountain was built to commemorate the soldiers and civilians who died in World War I and II.

Known as "Little Switzerland of Japan", "Bahai" is the Bagu Qingquan located in Oshino Village, Yamanashi Prefecture. The spring water is groundwater from Mount Fuji. It comes from the snow on the top of Mount Fuji. When the snow melts into water and seeps into the ground, it is filtered by the lava rocks in the ground and deposited for more than 80 years before finally flowing into Oshino Hakkai. Therefore, the spring water is quite clear and contains a lot of minerals.

Arakurayama Sengen Park is located in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, and is one of the best places to view Mount Fuji. The most famous attraction in the park is Chureito Pagoda, a red five-story pagoda that contrasts with Mount Fuji and the natural scenery that changes with the seasons.

Stop 5

The reflection of Mount Fuji reflected in Lake Kawaguchi, "the jade fan hanging upside down in the East China Sea and the sky", is known as one of the wonders of Mount Fuji. You can also choose to take a cruise and look at the beautiful mountains on the lake; or you can choose to take the cable car on Mount Tenjo to see the beauty of Lake Kawaguchi.

Stop 6

Oishi Park, on Lake Kawaguchi's north shore, offers stunning views of Mt. Fuji and the lake. Its 350m walking path features seasonal blooms: pink moss phlox (April-May), lavender (June-July), and vibrant red autumn foliage (October).
