FAQ
Mt. Fuji 5th Station serves as a popular base for visitors, offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes on clear days. Here, you can explore Komitake Shrine, known for its small torii gate, and browse souvenir shops selling local goods and snacks. There are also restaurants and resting facilities available. It's the closest point to the summit accessible by vehicle, providing a unique vantage point of Mount Fuji.
A typical day tour to Mt. Fuji 5th Station is designed for sightseeing and experiencing the views and facilities available at that elevation. The full climb to Mount Fuji's summit is a multi-day trek requiring significant preparation and is not part of a standard one-day sightseeing itinerary. Visitors on a day tour will explore the area around the 5th Station, such as souvenir shops and Komitake Shrine, rather than embarking on a climb.
Oshino Hakkai offers picturesque views of Mount Fuji, especially on clear days. The best viewpoints are often found near the main ponds, where the tranquil waters reflect the mountain's majestic silhouette. The traditional Japanese-style village setting with thatched-roof houses and scenic bridges also frames Mount Fuji beautifully, providing numerous opportunities for stunning photographs.
Lake Kawaguchi, the most well-known of the Fuji Five Lakes, offers diverse activities. Visitors can stroll along the lakeside, enjoying the iconic reflection of Mount Fuji in the water. Popular spots include Oishi Park, especially during blooming seasons for flowers like lavender or kochia. You can also visit museums, take a scenic boat cruise, or ride the Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway for elevated views.
Fuji-Hommachi-dori is famed for its classic "Mount Fuji in the background" street view. The street's retro charm, featuring traditional Japanese storefronts and lanterns, creates a striking foreground for the majestic Mount Fuji in the distance. This unique urban-meets-nature aesthetic makes it a highly sought-after location for photographers seeking iconic, postcard-worthy images.
During the day trip, tour guides provide services in multiple languages to accommodate international visitors. You can expect commentary and assistance in Chinese, English, and Korean, ensuring a smooth and informative experience as you explore attractions like Mt. Fuji 5th Station, Lake Kawaguchi, and Oshino Hakkai. This allows guests to fully understand the history and significance of each site.
The best seasons for clear views of Mount Fuji from the Lake Kawaguchi region are typically autumn (October to November) and winter (December to February). During these months, the air is usually clearer, increasing the chances of seeing Mount Fuji without cloud cover. Spring also offers beautiful views with cherry blossoms, though visibility can be more variable. Summer often has more humidity and cloud cover, making views less consistent.
For a day trip to the Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi area, it's essential to prepare for varying weather conditions. Bring comfortable walking shoes, layers of clothing (even in summer, it can be cooler at higher altitudes like the 5th Station), and rain gear like an umbrella or raincoat. Sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a portable charger for your devices are also recommended. Don't forget your camera for stunning photos.
