Mt. Fuji stands at 3,776 meters, making it the tallest mountain in Japan and one of its most iconic natural landmarks. For centuries, climbing Fuji has been considered a spiritual pilgrimage. Shinto followers view the mountain as sacred, and ascending it symbolizes purification and renewal. Reaching the summit in time for Goraikō (sunrise from the top) is considered one of the most spiritually uplifting experiences in Japan. Here’s what to keep in mind 👇

✔ Climbing season is limited to early July through early September.
✔ A mandatory ¥4,000 climbing fee and advance online registration is needed.
✔ Bullet climbs are discouraged and trail access is restricted from 2 PM to 3 AM without a hut reservation.
✔ Facilities on the mountain are minimal; carry water, light snacks, coins for toilets, and proper rain- and wind-proof gear.
✔ Trails differ in character, but none are easy, and summit weather can shift quickly.
✔ Tents are not permitted; overnight stays must be arranged in mountain huts.
✔ Prioritise safety - descents can be more challenging than ascents, with steep and rocky terrain.

A well-prepared climb allows you to experience Mount Fuji with both confidence and serenity.
