About this experience
Standing at 3,776 meters, Mount Fuji is Japan's highest peak. Despite its tranquil appearance, this famous Japanese symbol is actually an active volcano. Enjoy breathtaking views of the mountain and its surrounding scenery, including Lake Kawaguchi, from a unique vantage point. At the mountain's base, discover Oshino Hakkai, eight crystal-clear springs formed by filtered snowmelt from Mount Fuji's slopes.
