Narusawa Ice Cave (with kids)

Quick 10 min experience through a cave with a nicely set out path and stairs, and two shrines. The ceiling in some parts are really low so you'd have to crouch / bend to navigate through, but it's not too difficult. It's cold as well so do layer up before heading in. We didn't see too much ice, they may have melted over the years?

Narusawa Ice Cave is another place I visited during my trip to Mt. Fuji. Visiting this ice cave offers a great opportunity for physical activity and exercise. I'm glad I can handle it.

A unique and memorable stop near Mount Fuji. The Narusawa Ice Cave takes you through narrow lava-tube tunnels with impressive ice formations that stay frozen all year.

The walking path is short — about 150 meters — leading down a narrow, slippery tunnel with solidified...

Cheap but cheerful cave experience amongst beautiful naturescape. Visit during winter to see ice pillars. We visited in autumn & signs pre-warned ice pillars had melted, so we knew what to expect. Still went for the experience! Steep but short climb down 21m. Cold, so prepare accordingly. Watch your head for low hanging rocks. A short section where we had to pretty much crawl through - a unique ex...
