How Baby-Friendly is Mount Fuji?

54%Baby-Friendly
View Map

What makes it 54% Baby-Friendly: Stroller-friendly lakeside parks and the heritage center with a nursing room suit infants, yet 5th stations lack diaper tables and thin cold air means parents should keep visits low, short and well-timed.

Amazing experience. We climbed to the summit. It took us 8 hours to get up there (you will be told by the officer that it will take 6 hours to get to the summit-but don’t worry you are not alone-to take more time than 6 hours that is). 2 hours to hike around the crater and 4 hours down. We took it slowly because we were afraid of altitude sickness which is irreversible if it does attract. On the ...

Nature is always a priceless gift that humans have been given. When standing in front of the beautiful natural scenery, I feel my soul become more relaxed and light. Every morning, the sunlight filters through the green trees, the chirping of birds sounds like a song opening the new day. Nature not only brings beauty to life but also provides us with fresh air, cool water and food to survive. I e...

Definitely one of the best views I've ever seen. The moutain is 40Km in diameter and 3,7Km of altitude. Seen from Tokyo, 130 Km away from Mt. Fuji. Definitely an empowering view that demands respect from anyone lucky enough to see it with their own two eyes

One of the best experiences in my life. But it is not as easy as it looks. It's almost a uphill vertical climbing after 7th Station. If weather is good then you are in Bliss but here weather changes like in hourly basis. Be prepared for Sun and Rain all the times.

The best experience I’ve ever had. Even though I’m not an athlete and faced some challenges climbing Mount Fuji, every second of that moment was worth it. After the eighth station, it gets really cold, but the view is absolutely surreal. The best photos are taken in the early morning, so don’t forget to take it all in and enjoy.

When is the best time to visit Mount Fuji (Mount Fuji Area, Japan)?
