Description
Mount Fuji (3,776m) is Japan's highest peak.
On this 2-Day Mt. Fuji Tour, you'll have plenty of time to achieve your goal of reaching Mt. Fuji's summit. After a strenuous hike on the first day, you'll savor a hot dinner and spend the night in a mountain hut situated at 3400 meters. Rising before dawn, you'll resume the ascent to arrive at the summit just in time for sunrise.
The 2-day Mt. Fuji tour is conducted by English-speaking guides who are committed to helping you navigate Mt. Fuji, from Tokyo all the way to the summit and back. This journey takes the Subashiri trail, offering a less crowded and more authentic experience.
Please send me a message if you want to join a group to summit Mount Fuji, Japan's most famous peak, during the summer season.

Itinerary
Day 1: Day 1
You can choose to meet at Tochomae Station in Tokyo or Gotemba Station near Mt. Fuji, based on your preference. The tour will depart promptly at 6:45 a.m. from Tochomae Station and at 9:30 a.m. from Gotemba Station.
The group will leave Tokyo in a private vehicle, heading to the Subashiri 5th Station via Gotemba Station. We will begin our climb at 2,000 meters, following the Subashiri trail up to 3,400 meters, where we will rest and stay overnight. Our mountain hut will provide a hot dinner of Japanese curry rice.
Day 2: Day 2
Wake up before dawn to resume our climb in the dark, using headlamps to light the way. After a 1 1/2 hour trek to the summit, we'll experience the sunrise from the highest point in Japan.
You'll have time to purchase souvenirs, take photos, and, if the weather allows, opt for a climb around the crater. Following our celebration at the summit and a hot breakfast, the group will descend to the Subashiri 5th Station and head back to Tokyo via Gotemba Station.

Accommodation
Fujisan Hotel is perched at 3,400 meters at the Original 8th Station, just over an hour from the summit of Mt. Fuji, marking the final leg of the journey to Japan's highest peak.
Mountain huts on Mt. Fuji were originally established as shelters from the severe mountain weather and provide basic dormitory-style accommodations. You will have a bunk, bedding, sleeping bag, and pillow, all arranged in traditional Japanese style.
These huts offer a unique cultural experience specific to Mt. Fuji, providing a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow climbers, share stories, and experience camaraderie unlike anything found in a five-star hotel.

What people are saying about Japan
Jun is a responsible and reliable guide. He is also knowledgeable on the local flora and fauna and managed to show us quite a few interesting alpine flowers, birds and animals. He is kind and helpful and converses well in English. I will not hesitate to recommend him to any anyone needing an English speaking guide in Japan.
As for Kikuo-san, we both really liked her. She is very pleasant. A bit quiet spoken in a good way. She obviously knows the Akan region very well, as she lives inside the national park. She has very responsible and well organised. I would have her guide us again, when we go back to the area.

Just back from Hakuba –Japan and I’m so pleased to confirm we got such a great experience with Iwao who has provided a service above all expectations. Indeed assisting a family confronted to a new environment requires a certain level of patience and attention and all the family appreciated his sense of responsibilities and seriousness which allowed us to really enjoy this region by experiencing touring, hicking and of course skiing in immaculate powder. Iwao was very discreet but always acted to ensure we could take the best of all Hakuba mountains could offer to us during these 5 days.This experience will for sure remain in all our minds for long and this will be mainly thanks to Iwao ! Best, Arnaud
