Hi everyone!
I’m traveling to Japan with my family this August, and one of our planned stops is Mount Fuji.
My brother and I will be climbing Fuji on August 9, spending the night in one of the mountain huts, and finishing our ascent and descent on the morning of the 10th.
However, my parents and my 6-year-old nephew won’t be joining the climb. I’m looking for recommendations on where they could stay nearby—somewhere that’s convenient for both them and for us after we finish the hike.
Ideally, we’d like a town or area that:
• Is easy to access after the descent,
• Has transportation options (especially buses) back to Tokyo,
• Offers nice views of the mountain or has some things to do for people not climbing,
After we finish the climb and have lunch together, we all plan to return to Tokyo that same day.
Any suggestions are super welcome—thanks in advance! 🗻🌝🏯
