Description complète

Le grand tour de force de Hakone est que le transport est lui-meme l'attraction. Le circuit que les habitants appellent la boucle de Hakone enchaine un chemin de fer de montagne a lacets, un funiculaire, un telepherique aerien et un bateau de lac, chacun vous transmettant au suivant, chacun grimpant ou traversant un terrain qui serait sinon epuisant. Le faire seul est possible ; le faire avec quelqu'un qui sait quel train prendre et de quel cote se tenir dans la cabine fait la difference entre une journee de transit et une journee de Hakone.

Le chemin de fer de montagne Tozan de Hakone commence l'ascension, inversant sa direction a une serie de lacets pour gagner une hauteur que la pente ne lui donnerait pas autrement. Au-dessus, le telepherique s'eleve au-dessus d'Owakudani, le champ de fumerolles laisse par un effondrement il y a environ trois mille ans et qui fume encore. C'est de la que viennent les œufs noirs : des œufs ordinaires bouillis dans l'eau de la source, leurs coquilles noircies par le fer et le soufre, vendus chauds en sacs de cinq. La tradition locale offre sept annees de vie supplementaires par œuf, et il existe une glace aux œufs noirs pour ceux qui preferent leur folklore froid.

Le lac Ashinoko remplit le fond de la caldera en dessous, et un bateau touristique le traverse. Sur la rive orientale se dresse le sanctuaire de Hakone, fonde au huitieme siecle, avec son torii rouge plante dans les hauts-fonds. Au-dela de la crete lointaine, quand le ciel cooperent, le mont Fuji apparait. Hakone porte aussi une histoire reelle : la route Tokaido de l'ere Edo passait par ici et le shogunat y maintenait un de ses postes de controle les plus importants, inspectant les voyageurs entre Kyoto et Edo. Le Hakone Hachiri pave de pierre et l'avenue de cedres subsistent de cette route.

L'itineraire n'est pas fige. Selon vos interets et le temps, votre guide peut integrer le parc Gora, le musee en plein air de Hakone avec ses sculptures de colline et sa collection Picasso, le musee d'art Narukawa avec sa peinture japonaise et sa vue panoramique sur le lac, l'ancienne route Tokaido, le poste de controle reconstruit de Hakone, le parc Onshi Hakone sur les anciens terrains de la villa imperiale, ou l'Amazake Chaya, un salon de the au toit de chaume qui sert les voyageurs du col depuis environ quatre siecles.

Deux formats sont proposes. La version en transport public vous retrouve a la gare du shinkansen d'Odawara a 9h30 et dure environ huit heures, avec les billets de train, de telepherique et de croisiere inclus, et votre propre billet de train a grande vitesse separe. La version en transport prive vous prend dans un hotel du centre de Tokyo a 8h00 et revient vers 19h00, environ onze heures, avec un chauffeur agree, un vehicule prive et les peages d'autoroute inclus. Les deux sont tarifees par groupe plutot que par voyageur, donc le tarif publie est le total que votre groupe paie entre vous ; le tarif en transport public augmente avec chaque personne supplementaire, et la version privee est tarifee par tranches de un a quatre et de cinq a huit. Des frais de traitement de paiement de 1,5 % sont ajoutes au moment du paiement.

Public transport version: Odawara bullet train station. Private transport version: pickup at central Tokyo hotels.
The price does not cover bullet train tickets (public transport option), meals, entrance fees for additional activities, parking fees (private transport option). Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Unless the option says private, this runs as a small group. The operator caps it rather than filling a coach, and if you want it to yourselves the private option is priced separately on this page.
The Backstreet 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.

The duration of the La boucle de Hakone avec un guide local : chemin de fer Tozan, telepherique d'Owakudani et lac Ashinoko is typically 8 to 11 hours. We recommend arriving 15 minutes before the scheduled start time for a smooth check-in. Your guide will meet you at the designated meeting point and ensure the experience runs on schedule while remaining flexible to your pace.
For most experiences, we highly recommend an early morning start. This allows you to avoid the midday heat, bypass the largest crowds, and capture the best lighting for photography. Your guide can advise on the optimal timing based on the season and specific attractions included.

Every guide maintains a minimum 4.5-star rating to remain active on our platform.
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.
