Visitor tips

Acclimatize to altitude: Spend a day at a nearby location like Kawaguchiko to adjust to higher elevations before attempting to climb, reducing the risk of altitude sickness.
Choose the right trail: Research the Yoshida, Subashiri, Gotemba, and Fujinomiya trails to find which best suits your fitness level and climbing preferences; Yoshida is the most popular for beginners.
Respect sacred sites: Treat all shrines along the paths with respect, as Mt. Fuji is a sacred mountain. This includes observing silence and avoiding littering.
Station facilities: Utilize mountain huts (reservation recommended) for rests and to purchase water and food, as prices increase with altitude.
Avoid peak climbing times: If possible, avoid climbing during Obon week in mid-August when the trails are most crowded. Weekdays can offer a less congested experience.
Weather preparedness: Even in summer, temperatures can be near freezing at the summit. Wear layers and bring rain gear to handle changing conditions.
Sun protection: The sun can be particularly harsh at high elevations. Apply sunscreen, wear a hat, and use sunglasses to protect against UV rays.
Leave no trace: Carry all trash back with you. Facilities are limited, and preserving the natural environment is crucial.
Cash is king: While some huts and vendors accept cards, many do not. Carry sufficient cash for any purchases on the mountain.
Emergency preparedness: Have a small first aid kit and know the emergency contact numbers. Mobile service can be spotty, so plan accordingly.
