Fuji Five Lakes Travel Tips

The Fuji Five Lakes (Fujigoko) region, at the northern base of Mount Fuji, is a breathtaking destination offering stunning views of Japan’s iconic mountain. Surrounded by Kawaguchiko, Saiko, Yamanakako, Shojiko, and Motosuko, the area sits 1000 meters above sea level and is perfect for outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, and camping.

Lake Kawaguchiko, the most accessible, boasts hot springs, museums, and Fuji-Q Highland, an amusement park with thrilling roller coasters. The other lakes are quieter and less developed, offering serene escapes and unmatched vistas of Mount Fuji.
