Mt. Fuji Sunrise Climbing Tour

Highlights

・A private tour — the pace can be customized to match your fitness level and preferences. 

・We will see the sunrise around 8th station, where is lower than the summit. We can avoid the crowds and enjoy the  sunrise at leisure.

The lower the altitude, the more likely it is to be clear. 

・We will reach the summit after the sunrise. We can climb comfortably without getting stuck in crowds.

Usually the crowding happens at the lower summit before sunrise. 

・After the summit, we will take a break at a hut without crowds on the summit. 

・If you wish, we can watch the sunrise from the top of the mountain.
