Descripción completa

En diciembre de 1707 el monte Fuji hizo erupcion por ultima vez, desgarrando una serie de crateres en su ladera sureste y cubriendo de ceniza Edo, a ciento treinta kilometros, de polvo. El borde de esa erupcion es el monte Hoei, con 2.693 m el segundo punto mas alto de la montana, y esta caminata de un dia camina directamente hacia el. Donde el ascenso a la cumbre trata de altitud y resistencia, esto trata de ver lo que un volcan realmente hace: flujos de lava en bruto, pendientes de ceniza suelta, y una pared de crater que apenas ha comenzado a hacer crecer algo de nuevo despues de tres siglos.

La ruta cubre unos 7,2 km, comenzando desde el campamento base de Fujinomiya a 2.400 m y subiendo hasta la cumbre de Hoei a 2.693 m. Cuatro a cinco horas de caminata lo lleva alli y de vuelta, con el terreno alternando entre sendero compactado y tramos de roca expuesta y grava volcanica que se desplaza bajo los pies. El almuerzo, un bento japones, se come en la cima. La vista desde la cumbre abarca aproximadamente 280 grados: la caldera de Hakone al este, el lago Yamanaka entre los Cinco Lagos del Fuji al norte, la costa del Pacifico al sur, y detras de usted toda la masa gris del Fuji elevandose hacia el cono de la cumbre.

La gran ventaja practica de Hoei es su temporada. La ventana oficial de ascenso del Fuji dura apenas nueve semanas, de principios de julio a principios de septiembre, y fuera de ella los refugios cierran y la montana se vuelve genuinamente peligrosa. Esta caminata funciona de mediados de mayo a mediados de noviembre, lo que significa que puede caminar alto en el Fuji en el aire claro de finales de otono o principios de verano, cuando las multitudes se han ido y la visibilidad esta en su mejor momento.

Es honesto llamar a esto una caminata intermedia en lugar de facil. Esta por encima de 2.400 m durante toda la caminata, la grava volcanica es agotadora e inestable en lugares, y las secciones expuestas atrapan el viento. No hay trepada ni dificultad tecnica, y los caminantes regulares con salud razonable lo manejan comodamente, pero es un dia de montana real en lugar de un paseo pintoresco. Los guias son guias de montana profesionales de habla inglesa y el grupo esta limitado a ocho.

La logistica esta cubierta de manera inusualmente buena. El dia dura aproximadamente de 08:30 a 17:00 puerta a puerta, con recogida gratuita en la estacion de Gotemba o en Fuji Mountain Coffee en la salida de grupo, o recogida en el hotel alrededor de Kawaguchiko, Hakone y Gotemba en una reserva privada. Todo el equipo esencial de senderismo, incluidas botas y capas impermeables, se presta sin costo adicional, asi que no necesita volar a Japon con una mochila de equipo de montana. El precio es por persona en la salida de grupo, que necesita un minimo de dos viajeros; hay disponible una version privada en una escala deslizante por persona que se vuelve mas economica a medida que crece el grupo. Solo articulos personales como un sombrero, gafas de sol y su propia medicacion quedan a su cargo.

The price does not cover personal items (hat, sunglasses, personal medication). Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Expect uneven ground and some climbing, and mud after rain. Trainers with grip are the minimum and proper shoes are better. The pace follows the group, so tell your guide early if you want it slower rather than at the point you are struggling.
Fuji Mountain Guides. We book with them directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can confirm your place with the operator before taking it as final.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice outside India. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Only during the official season, roughly early July to early September — exact dates are announced each year per route. Outside it the mountain huts close, and climbing becomes a serious mountaineering proposition rather than a hike. A mandatory climbing fee and a daily cap now apply on the Yoshida route, with the other routes following. Full detail in our guide to climbing Mount Fuji.
Counterintuitively, winter — the cold, dry air gives the clearest views, while humid summer haze often hides the mountain entirely. That means the climbing season is also the worst viewing season. Where and when to look is covered in our Mount Fuji viewpoints guide.
An Odakyu pass covering the whole Hakone loop — Tozan railway, cable car, ropeway, Lake Ashi boats and buses — for less than buying the legs separately. How the loop works and which direction to travel it is in getting around Hakone.
It varies. Many traditional baths still refuse tattoos, some now allow them with cover stickers, and a private bath (kashikiri) is the reliable workaround. Bathing etiquette and how to find tattoo-friendly options are in our Hakone onsen guide.
It was listed in 2013 for its influence on art, literature and pilgrimage — not for its geology. That is why the listing includes places like Oshino Hakkai and the Sengen shrines, not just the peak itself. Background in our climbing Mount Fuji guide.
Two days lets you do the loop without rushing and still soak properly in an onsen — a single day works but means moving constantly. Our Hakone 2-day itinerary maps it out hour by hour.
Most Hakone and Mt. Fuji private tours here are priced for the whole party, not per traveller — the operator is providing a vehicle and a guide, so a group of four pays the same as a couple. The exceptions are the group summit climbs, which are genuinely per person. Each tour page states which model applies.
