I hiked all the way to the summit of Japan’s Mount Fuji


Most climbers take this route, and it is now so popular that this year, the Yamanashi prefectural government limited entry to the trail to between 3am and 4pm, and only to those who pay an entrance fee of ¥2,000 (S$18). There is also a daily cap of 4,000 climbers.

The Fujinomiya Trail starts at 2,380m at the Fujinomiya Trail 5th Station. It is shorter but steeper and takes about five hours to ascend and three hours to descend. Unlike the Yoshida Trail, climbers return the same way they ascend.

The third trail is the Subashiri Trail, which begins at 1,970m at the Subashiri Trail 5th Station. It is less crowded than the Yoshida Trail, and merges with it near the 8th Station. There are fewer mountain huts available, and it takes about six hours to ascend and three hours to descend.

The Gotemba Trail is the longest route to the summit, as it starts from the lowest elevation among the trails, at 1,440m at the Gotemba Trail New 5th Station. It is less crowded, and takes seven hours to ascend and three hours to descend.
