Private Hiking Tour to View Mt. Fuji
5.0 / 5 · 14 traveler reviews
【The pickup service is available only for guests who are already staying in Kawaguchiko or Fujiyoshida area, or for those who can come to the areas on their own.】 This tour involves 3-3.5 hours hiking on the highest peak at Yamanakako area. There are more than 400 stairs at the beginning of the hike and we need to climb up steep and narrow hill at the last 30 minutes. You need to be fit to get to the top! The highlight of the tour isn't only the scenery. There is Ishiwari-shrine at the 8th station which has a large rock and people said it is the stage of the Japanese mythology called”Ama-no-Iwato”. The rock is so cracked that one person can barely pass through and If you can walk through it three times clockwise, it is said that it will bring you a good luck! We'll have lunch at local Udon noodle restaurant after the hiking. The guide takes you to the best place. Let's enjoy authentic Japanese food there!
