【The tour is suitable for the guests who stay around Lake Kawaguchiko,Lake Yamanakako and Fujiyoshida areas.】 This tour involves 3-3.5 hours hiking on the highest peak at Yamanakako area.

We can enjoy the great view of Mt.Fuji and Lake Yamanakako from there after the adventure:) The highlight of the tour isn't only the scenery. There is Ishiwari-shrine at the 8th station which has a large rock and people said it is the stage of the Japanese mythology called”Ama-no-Iwato”. The rock is so cracked that one person can barely pass through and If you can walk through it three times clockwise, it is said that it will bring you a good luck!
