Overview

Discover Mount Fuji’s iconic beauty on this seasonal day trip from Tokyo. Begin with a visit to Arakurayama Sengen Park (Oct 1–Apr 25), famed for its panoramic views of Fuji with a historic pagoda, or explore Fujisan Gogōme (Apr 26–Sep 30), the mountain’s 5th station offering close-up vistas.

At Lake Kawaguchi, enjoy seasonal highlights: Oishi Park (Nov 21–Mar 31 & May 26–Oct 25) blooms with lavender or autumn foliage; Cherry Blossom Festival (Apr 1–13, 2025) lines the lakeside with pink blooms; Shibazakura Festival (Apr 14–May 25, 2025) carpets fields in vibrant moss phlox (admission: ¥1,100–1,400; children ¥600–800). In autumn, stroll the Maple Corridor (Oct 26–Nov 20, 2025) for fiery foliage.

At Lake Yamanaka, opt for a self-paid activity: cruise on the Swan Lake Boat (¥100/swan feed) or unwind at Benifuji Onsen (¥570–1,120 entry), where outdoor baths overlook Fuji.
