Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Lake Ashinoko, Hakone, Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun 250-0521 Kanagawa Prefecture
Lake Ashinoko (芦ノ湖, Ashinoko) was formed in the caldera of Mount Hakone after the volcano’s last eruption 3000 years ago. Today, the lake with Mount Fuji in the background is the symbol of Hakone. The lake’s shores are mostly undeveloped except for small towns in the east and north and a couple of lakeside resort hotels. The best views of the lake in combination with Mount Fujican be enjoyed from the sightseeing boats cruising the lake. Note however, that clouds and poor visibility often block the view of Mount Fuji, and you have to consider yourself lucky if you get a clear view of the mountain. Visibility tends to be better during the colder seasons of the year than in summer, and in the early morning and late afternoon hours. Two companies, Hakone Sightseeing Boats and Izuhakone Sightseeing Boats, operate boats between Moto-Hakone and Hakone-machi at the lake’s southern shores and Togendai and Kojiri at the lake’s northern end. A boat cruise from one end of the lake to the other takes roughly 30 minutes and costs 1050 yen.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Jinja Shrine, 5558 Kamiyoshida, Fujiyoshida 403-0005 Yamanashi Prefecture
Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen-jinja Shrine has a history of 1900 years. When Yamato Takeru-no-mikoto, the ancient Japanese emperor, went on an expedition east, he worshipped the divine spirit of Mt. Fuji from this location, declaring, “”Worship the mountain spirit of Mt. Fuji from the north!”” Then, a small shrine for Mt. Fuji was constructed here. Since then people developed here and it became the center of Fuji-worship.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Oshino Hakkai, 151 Shibokusa, Oshino-mura, Minamitsuru-gun 401-0511 Yamanashi Prefecture
Mt. Fuji World Cultural Heritage Site Asset (registered in June 2013) revered as the “spring of the gods” since long ago, many legends have been told about this site. There are eight springs at Oshino Hakkai Springs. At one time, what we now know as Oshino-mura used to be a lake. Mt. Fuji erupted many times, gradually filling the space between Fujisusono and Mt. Misaka. This abraded and drained the area so that, over long period of time, the lake finally dried up. However, some springs that received water from Mt. Fuji’s underground water reservoir remained. Oshino Hakkai is one of the representatives of those springs. Since the water quality, water volume, safety of the water (for drinking), and visual appeal were highly rated, the Environment Agency (current Ministry of the Environment) included it in its National Top 100 Spring Waters in 1985. It was also nationally recognized as a natural monument. Additionally, Oshino Hakkai Springs and the surrounding area feature a beautiful landscape that includes Mt. Fuji, making it a popular place for photography enthusiasts.

Nowadays however, that image has all but disappeared. So, with the aim of reviving that traditional Japanese scene of a thatched roof village, Fujikawaguchiko-machi has restored approx. 20 thatched roof houses and created “Saiko Iyashino-Sato Nenba.” The village has a variety of facilities for everyone to enjoy. In each individual building, you can enjoy traditional craft making activities, museums and galleries, shopping of local products, and teatime or meals.(Entrance fee:adult¥300/child¥150)
