Hakone, Mount Fuji & Around
Hakone National Park, created by nearby Mt Fuji’s repetitive volcanic activity, is renowned for its hot springs and spas. Gaze across Lake Ashinoko for photographic views of Japan’s iconic, snow-capped cone, Mt Fuji.
Hakone National Park’s natural beauty has been attracting visitors for years, with a fascinating assortment of quintessentially Japanese experiences. Visit the Open Air Sculpture Museum, which is a collection of more than 100 statues, and enjoy the Komagatake Ropeway, travelling above Hakone’s most thermally active area. Lake Ashinoko (Ashi) gives you an upside down view of Mt Fuji reflected in its waters, while seeing the awe-inspiring peak from Lake Kawaguchiko during cherry blossom season is to be remembered. A stay in a Ryokan (traditional Japanese Inn) is an exclusive and unique experience.
