Mount Fuji is Japan’s highest mountain, at a height of 3,776 meters (12,388 feet). An active volcano that erupted in 1701, it is a beautiful natural wonder that has inspired many Japanese folktales. There are lots of places with views of Mt. Fuji. If you take the train from Tokyo in the direction of Nagoya, Kyoto, and Osaka, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the mountain from the right-hand side of the train. If you prefer a clear view of the mountain, then take a trip to this lovely mountain. During the holidays, book a ryokan near Mt. Fuji for easier access. You can either climb the mountain during July and August when the weather is clear and breezy, or you can head to the Fuji Five Lake region at the northern foot of the mountain.

Traveler's tips
We went to see Mount Fuji in autumn because we've always wanted to see the autumn foliage. The trip was from October to the end of November. It's probably the most popular time apart from Sakura season. But keep in mind, because of global warming, the foliage season has been delayed, so plan accordingly.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities.

Mount Fuji - a majestic volcano lies in wait
Apart from its polite citizens and clockwork efficiency of its public services, Japan also has a lot to offer - food, cultural delights, the cool weather are just some of the things that entice guests to visit Japan repeatedly. Needless to say, Mount Fuji is also a huge draw for tourists. When you climb or sit the cable car to the fifth level of Mount Fuji, there is a platform for you to rest your legs. There is also a shop selling many souvenirs, and in typical Japanese style, beautifully wrapped gifts of chocolate. After your visit to Mount Fuji, you can choose to either take a train back to Tokyo or visit the bathhouses located around the volcano and dine in the restaurants nearby. These are experiences you won’t want to miss as the bathhouses are traditional Japanese-style and provide one with a sense of how the locals use their bathhouses. As for the restaurants, having wagyu beef and hotpot in the winter is a treat not to be missed. Indeed, Mount Fuji offers guests many lovely moments to behold. So book those tickets to Japan and visit this majestic volcano today!
