[Guaranteed Departure from 1 Person] Hakone & Mount Fuji & Enoshima Day Tour | Enoshima, Owakudani, Lake Ashi Torii, Hakone Ropeway, Hakone Pirate Ship

The easiest and most convenient way to reach the Hakone Ropeway from Tokyo is by joining a day tour that includes the experience, which saves you the hassle of multiple transfers. If you prefer public transportation, you can take the Hakone Tozan Railway from Hakone-Yumoto Station to Gora Station, then transfer to the Hakone Tozan Cable Car to Sounzan Station, and finally board the Hakone Ropeway to reach your destination. Along the way, you can enjoy diverse natural scenery.

The fare for the Hakone Ropeway varies depending on the section you choose to ride (e.g., from Sounzan to Owakudani, or from Owakudani to Togendai). You can typically purchase one-way or round-trip tickets. You can easily book a day tour that includes the ropeway experience through KKday, enjoying the convenience of itinerary planning and dedicated transportation, saving you the trouble of purchasing tickets and researching transportation yourself, making your journey smoother and more worry-free.

While riding the Hakone Ropeway, both the section from Sounzan Station to Owakudani Station and the section from Owakudani Station to Togendai Station offer opportunities to admire the majestic scenery of Mt. Fuji and the volcanic terrain of Owakudani. Especially near Owakudani Station, Mt. Fuji's summit is clearly visible on clear days. It is recommended to choose a window seat for the best possible views.

Owakudani is the center of volcanic activity in Hakone, and its most unique landscape features continuously erupting sulfurous steam and hot springs. Visitors can experience the grandeur of the volcanic terrain up close and taste the local specialty, 'Owakudani black eggs,' which are said to prolong life by seven years if you eat one. Furthermore, it is an excellent spot for viewing Mt. Fuji and the surrounding Hakone mountains.

When taking photos with the iconic red torii gate of Hakone Shrine at Lake Ashi, the best times to capture a dreamy atmosphere are early morning or late evening when the light is soft and crowds are smaller. You can stand by the lake and frame Mt. Fuji, the water, and the distinctive torii gate together, or use the lake's reflection to create a symmetrical beauty. Finding the right angle to avoid crowds is key to successful photography.

In the Hakone area, visibility of Mt. Fuji is typically best in the early mornings from autumn to winter (around October to March), when the weather is clear, the air is clean, and humidity is low. During this time, Mt. Fuji's summit is often covered in snow, making the scenery particularly spectacular. In summer or on cloudy, rainy days, it is more likely to be obscured by clouds and fog, affecting the viewing experience.

The Enoshima Sea Candle (also known as the Enoshima Observation Lighthouse) is best visited in the evening to admire the panoramic views of Mt. Fuji and Sagami Bay. At this time, as the sun sets, the sky turns orange and red, allowing you to witness the stunning 'red Fuji' beauty, while also capturing the illuminated lighthouse and the night scenery of Sagami Bay, creating an unforgettable view.

In addition to visiting the 1500-year-old Enoshima Shrine and ascending the observation lighthouse, Enoshima boasts a lively Nakamise-dori street where you can sample local snacks and buy souvenirs. The island also features many scenic walking paths and parks, such as the Iwaya Caves, where you can explore their historical legends and natural scenery, experiencing the unique island atmosphere of Shonan.
