Note: This event has already passed.

Hike at the bottom of Mt. Fuji before attempting to summit Mt. Fuji at a different tour. We will stop by Fuji Sengen Shrine to purchase the famous Mt. Fuji hiking sticks (Kongo-zue), then move to Nakanojaya where our hike starts. First, we will walk for 80 minutes until Umagaeshi. Umagaeshi to the 3rd station is a 90-minute hike on a comfortable trail through the woods. After the 3rd station, the trail steepens where we will continue to hike for another 45 minutes until we reach the 4.5th station, which is at an altitude of 2,010m. We will hike for 50 minutes to the Yoshida 5th station and then detour for 35 minutes to the hidden 6th station to get rare stamps. We will then descend 40 minutes towards our goal, Subaru line 5th station. This tour does not include summiting Mt. Fuji but it is one of many conditioning opportunities to prepare a summit hike.
