A majestic volcano with an almost perfect conical shape, imposing itself as out of nowhere, the object of many tales and legends, it has become over time a source of veneration for some, of reflection or inspiration for others.
Whatever your motivations, be convinced about its fascinating contemplation and transcendent ascension.
As many other wise person before you, take the pilgrim trails, draw from you the strength that leads every man to the summit and savor the moment when, setting foot on the roof of Japan, you will contemplate the infinity of the horizon*.
*Subject to good weather conditions.
More than a memory, an adventure.
With group from 2 to 6 people max, we propose to you a climb made for you, full autonomy on one day.
Daytime Ascent:
It’s an easy concept: we meet us together on late afternoon. Then I bring you to a local restaurant. After dinner we go back to the lodge to plan the ascent and pack our gears. We take a rest before leaving by car to the 5th station early morning. Quietly climb to the top for lunch time, then way down.
Going back home, stop at the Onsen (optional - tattoos prohibited) to relax and conclude our journey as it should.
During High Season, mountain hut overnight stay, please contact us.
Night time Ascent:
Same concept as daytime, just timetable changes. We leave the lodge to the 5th station before midnight. Departure time depends on the period to be able to reach the summit before the sunrise. It is strongly recommended to rest well before coming.
Off season only.

The ascent of Mont Fuji is not a great technical difficulty but nevertheless requires a very good physical condition, endurance and a minimum of preparation to be performed in the best conditions.
We draw your attention to the fact that this is an altitude hike in which you can be prone to mountain sickness and that the practice of a recreational or sports activity in the mountains involves risks.
For obvious reasons of safety, and in order to balance the group, we ask you to conscientiously inform the sections on your physical abilities in the booking form. "False" or "wrong" information can compromise the progress of the group.
We supply the following equipment:
- Backpacks
- Headlamp
- Sticks
- Rain wear (Size M & L)
- Polar jacket (Size M & L)
- Hat/Cap
- Neck warmer
- Gloves (availability depending on size)
- Spikes
- Survival blanket
Regarding the necessary equipment (clothes and shoes), you must be equipped according to the instructions given by the official site for the ascent of Mount Fuji ( http://www.fujisan-climb.jp/en/index.html ). Appropriate footwear and warm clothing to withstand negative temperatures are mandatory. Particular attention will be paid to the subject.
A check will be made and we reserve the right to refuse a candidate for the climb that does not present the necessary equipment.
Reaching the top is not guaranteed, if during the ascent the security conditions were no longer met for different reasons, it would be put in term by decision of the guide.
