Mt. Fuji experience report (Yoshida route) Part1

We finally got to climb Mt. Fuji, which is something we have wanted to do forever! We will let you know what it was like.

We have written the basic facts about climbing Mt. Fuji in a separate document so please read that as well.

This time, we reserved a 1 night 2 days package tour stay at a Mountain hut as our way of transportation. The fee is about 12000yen. And we added an extra 500yen fee in choosing a plan where you can stay overnight at a Mountain hut above the level number 8. We had heard that in order to see the sunrise, the climbing roads becomes very crowded on the day beforehand, and we felt that we wanted to start climbing from the highest location possible. In the end paying the extra fee was worth it, and we want to recommend it to you.

We met at Shinjuku and made our way towards Kawaguchi lake number 5 on a tour bus. The meeting time was 7:30am at Shinjuku station’s west exit.
