About this experience

This full-day Mt. Fuji Nature E-Bike Tour explores the quiet countryside on the Shizuoka side of Mt. Fuji, away from crowded tourist areas.

Using E-bikes, you ride rural roads and forest backroads rarely visited by tourists. Rather than rushing between landmarks, the tour allows time to experience Mt. Fuji’s natural environment and the slower rhythm of local life. Along the route, you step off the bike for short forest walks, lava cave exploration, and visits to waterfalls and spring areas at the foot of Mt. Fuji.

This private tour follows a safe core route, with flexibility based on guest interests and conditions. The experience focuses on quality rather than completing a fixed checklist.

As this is an outdoor experience, routes or travel methods may change due to weather or safety conditions. In severe weather, the tour may switch to vehicle-based travel or be canceled. If canceled due to weather, no cancellation fee will apply.
