The thrill seekers will love the Fujikyu Highlands, a theme park next to the Kawaguchiko Lake, where they will be able to ride the
steepest roller coaster!
From the Otsuki station, take the Fuji Kyuko line to the 'Fuji-Q Highland'.
For the travelers coming from the West of Japan, the
Fujinomiya ascension route is the easiest to reach.
To get there:
1.Take the bus from
the Shin-Fuji station on the Tokaido Shinkansen line
2.Take the JR Tokaido Honsen line to Fuji, change for the JR Minobu line to Fujinomiya, and from there take another bus.
The
Chureito pagoda in the Arajura Sengen offers a post card view of Mount Fuji.
To get there, get off at the Shimo-Yoshida station on the Fuji Kyuko line.
But nothing beats the pleasure of admiring Mount Fuji from
your Shinkansen’s seat, while savoring a '
ekiben', on the way
from Tokyo to Nagoya and Kyoto. The Mount Fuji being on your right, try to book the D or E seats (these will remain the same on the Kyoto-Tokyo route during which Mount Fuji will appear on your left).
