Mt. Fuji area hikes (富士山周辺)

Mt. Fuji is a beautiful mountain to look at, but a terribly ugly one to climb. Why not fine-tune the photography skills by climbing the hills surrounding Japan’s highest peak for a bird’s eye view of the symmetrical cone? I’ll eventually be expanding this page once I get back there to climb more peaks. In the meantime, enjoy the following:

Medium, 4-6 hours, 7km [Yamanashi]


Easy-Medium, 5-7 hours, 8.5km [Shizuoka]


Medium, 5-7 hours, 9.7km [Yamanashi]
