Ascent to the Summit of Mount Fuji

Highlight • Climb

When walking around the crater, be sure to go clockwise - you don't want to go back down the climb shown in the photo (yes, it's still relatively smooth), so the descent on the other side is more pleasant.

Mount Fuji Summit (Japan's highest peak)

Highlight • Summit

Japan's highest point at 3,776 meters. It's a 30-minute walk from the trailhead, but since you're already there... The route back to the trailhead for the descent is the same length, so it's best to do it all round!

Kusushi Shrine (Kusushi-jinja)

Highlight • Religious Site

Shinto shrine. There is also a place to stay, a simple eatery that also sells hot canned coffee in the mornings, restrooms, and souvenir vendors. The Subashiri Trail and the Yoshida Trail also end here.

Fujisan Summit Post Office

Highlight • Summit

A magnificent mountain surrounded by the Japanese Alps and the Pacific Ocean, you should always drink enough, take snacks with you and take plenty of breaks to avoid getting altitude sickness. Fuji-san one of my favorites, beautiful views all around
