Detailed itinerary

Mount Fuji's 5th Station is a
popular, accessible starting point for climbers and tourists offering stunning views above the tree line at around 2,300m, with shops, restaurants, and shrines, especially the well-developed Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station (Yoshida Trail) which is busiest and most accessible via shuttle buses from Kawaguchiko during the summer climbing season (July-Sept) when private cars are restricted.

Oshino Hakkai is a touristy set of eight ponds in Oshino, a small village in the Fuji Five Lake region, located between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako on the site of a former sixth lake that dried out several hundred years ago. The eight ponds are fed by snow melt from the slopes of nearby Mount Fuji that filters down the mountain through porous layers of lava for over 80 years, resulting in very clear spring water that is revered by the locals.

Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Shrine is one of approximately 1,300 Asama shrines in Japan that enshrine the deity of volcanoes in general and Mount Fuji in particular. The shrine is part of the Mt. Fuji UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site, designated in 2013

Lake Kawaguchiko, part of the Fuji Five Lakes in Yamanashi Prefecture, is the most accessible, developed, and frequently visited spot for viewing Mount Fuji. It features iconic "upside-down Fuji" reflections, hot springs, museums, and, in 2026, scenic, lavender-covered parks. The area is ideal for year-round,, with spring cherry blossoms and autumn foliag

Stop 5

Located in the Oishi district on the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, Oishi Park offers a stunning location where you can take in views of both the lake and Mount Fuji at once. Seasonal flowers bloom beautifully along the lakeside promenade throughout the year. On sunny days, the park is bustling from early morning with photographers capturing the iconic Mt. Fuji framed by the lake and flowers.

Arakurayama (The Chureito Pagoda)is a five storied pagoda on the mountainside overlooking Fujiyoshida City and Mount Fuji off in the distance. The pagoda is part of the Arakura Sengen Shrine and was built as a peace memorial in 1963 nearly 400 steps up the mountain from the shrine's main buildings.
