Join us for an off-season ascent of Mount Fuji via the Subashiri Trail from September 10th until the end of October! This private adventure is perfect for those with extensive hiking experience across various seasons.
Get ready for an exciting journey, where we'll be hiking up this majestic mountain for about eight hours per day. Under my expert guidance, I will ensure everyone is capable of completing the full distance.
We'll meet up at your hotel in Mishima city or at Mishima station if you're traveling from Tokyo. Our adventure begins with acclimatization and instructions before we hit the trail. After a rewarding hike, we'll arrive at the mountain hut, where a delicious dinner awaits. Lights out comes early to prepare for an optional sunrise summit the next morning.
The ascent to the summit takes about three hours, offering breathtaking views and a chance for a group photo at 3776 meters, with an optional circling of the crater. The descent, taking approximately three hours, ends at the trailhead 5th station. Finally, we'll drop you off at Gotemba station or Mishima station.
To celebrate our hike, optional post-hike activities include enjoying craft beer, visiting a tattoo-friendly onsen hot spring, and/or having lunch, all provided by the guide.
Please note, this trip is designed for a different kind of adventure, and a sunrise summit ascent is not part of the plan.

Hama was amazing! A thorough preparation, excellent communication from the booking until the end of the experience. Very considerate to ensure pace matched ability. Safety was a high focus and we felt in very capable hands. Hama's knowledge of the country, region and mountain was excellent which enriched our experience. Thank you so much! Would definitely recommend Hama and Explore-Share :)
