First thing in the morning, you will meet your guide at the reception. Then you will take a ride to the footsteps of the sacred Mt. Fuji, or Fuji-san.
As you reach the 5th station, located at 2,300 meters, the Fuji Subaru Line road will lead you to the Shinto shrine Sengen, dedicated to Princess Konohanasakuya. According to local legend, the spirit of the greatest mountain in Japan lives there. In the same area, you will find the Kachi-Kachi Ropeway, which leads to nearby Mt. Tenzo. From the observation deck, you can enjoy the magnificent view of Mt. Fuji and the whole Five Lakes region.
