Mt. Fuji Half Day Itinerary (Narusawa Ice Cave/Fugaku Wind Cave & Aokigahara)

These are caves that originated from a lava flow due to Mt. Fuji’s eruption in 864. At Narusawa Ice Cave, you can view natural icicles formed from the freezing water droplets that trickled from the ceiling. Appropriate clothing is advised since the cave interior is also cold in summer. A simple lunch is recommended at the shop after your tour.

Trees grew over the lava that had flowed due to the eruption of Mt. Fuji, creating a vast primeval forest. Even now, lava rock can be seen in spots and you can observe the mystery of the trees that have grown on it. It’s important that you keep to the fixed walking trails because of the extreme danger from getting lost.

A day-trip onsen where you can fully enjoy a view of Mt. Fuji while soaking in the waters. Feel the blessings of nature from the waters of Mt. Fuji and recover from the fatigue from your walk. There are also restaurants where you can sample the local dishes at the foot of the mountain. There is even local beer there which is the best especially with your meal after getting out of the bath.
