What is Fujiten Snow Resort?
Fujiten Snow Resort is a ski resort located at the 1st station of Mt. Fuji.
In addition to enjoying winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding with the impressive Mt. Fuji in the background, you can also enjoy the majestic view of Mt. Fuji from the "Mt. Fuji Observation Deck" by riding the "Mt. Fuji Observation Lift" (only available on weekdays) even if you don't ski or snowboard.
Also, "sledding'' is a popular activity among overseas travelers who can easily enjoy playing in the snow. There is a slope exclusively for sledding, so you can enjoy sledding without worrying about your surroundings.
This is a must-visit tourist spot for sightseeing around Fuji Five Lakes and Lake Kawaguchiko in winter!
Access from Tokyo (Shinjuku)
It takes about 2 hours by train or 90 minutes by express bus from Tokyo (Shinjuku) to Kawaguchiko Sta.. I think the express bus is a little faster, but there is a risk of traffic jams, so if you have plenty of time, please use the express bus!
