Fujiyoshida. Lake Kawaguchi

Five well-known lakes are praised by the Japanese for offering stunning views of Mount Fuji. It is a dream of inveterate travelers to meet the sunrise, prior to the rest of the world, on top of this mountain.

One of the routes to climb Mount Fuji starts from Lake Kawaguchi. Climbing the Mount is made convenient and secure by providing the routes with huts and stations, where you can relax, wait for help or replenish water supplies. The most favorable time for this journey is from 1 July to 27 August, when it is not cold. The Yoshida Fire Festival, in the city of Fujiyoshida, finishes the season.
