Located at the bottom of Mt. Fuji and near Lake Kawaguchiko, Fujiten Snow Resort is a place to enjoy skiing, snowboarding or just play with snow.

There’s basically no entrance fee, so you can visit this place to just take some pictures, play with snow a little and feel the coldness of snow.

●10:30 Lake Cruise at Lake Kawaguchiko

Lake Kawaguchiko is one of the most popular tourist spots around Mt. Fuji. The beautiful lake is surrounded with many shops, museums, parks, restaurants and other sightseeing points, as well as attractions.

Usually you don’ have chance to enjoy the view of Mt. Fuji from a ship…but here at Lake Kawaguchiko, you can take a lake cruise close to the montain!

●11:00 Lunch at Local Food Restaurant

One of the traditional local food is “Houtou”, which is Udon like thick noodle cooked in miso-based vegetable soup. The soup is slightly sweet as they typically use pumpkin, but it matches well with the miso taste. This healthy dish will warm you up after walking in the cold air of winter.

●12:00 Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine/ Chureito Pagoda

Founded in 705, the shrine enshrines the goddess of Mt. Fuji, Konohanasakuya. Today the shrine is known as one of the most scenic place around Mt. Fuji…but be prepared! You’ll need to go up the steep steps to reach the Five-storied Pagoda!
