Mount Fuji Instagram-worthy train, Yamanashi seasonal fruit picking, and Oishi Park one-day tour

Starting from Shinjuku, embark on a classic day trip that collects the essence of Mount Fuji's four seasons in one go. As you head towards Yamanashi, the scenery gradually shifts from urban landscapes to pastoral and mountainous views, instantly enhancing the travel experience.

• Depending on the season, the itinerary will visit one of two iconic attractions. In spring, summer, and autumn, ascend to Mount Fuji’s 5th Station, where you can gaze up at Mount Fuji from an altitude of 2305 meters. On clear days, you can overlook Lake Kawaguchiko and the surrounding mountains; when shrouded in clouds, you might even encounter a dreamlike sea of clouds, experiencing the awe-inspiring grandeur of Japan’s highest peak. In winter, visit Arakurayama Sengen Park, climb the steps to overlook the classic composition of “Mount Fuji + Five-Story Pagoda + Cityscape.” Whether it’s cherry blossoms, fresh greenery, autumn leaves, or snow scenes, it’s impossible not to repeatedly press the shutter button.
• Next, take the popular Mount Fuji Instagrammable Train from Shimoyoshida Station to Mount Fuji. In just over ten minutes, you can closely admire the Japanese drama-like scenery of Mount Fuji intertwined with rural landscapes and small towns, easily experiencing the slow travel atmosphere at the foot of Mount Fuji.
• Lunch is arranged at a popular local Mount Fuji Japanese restaurant. On clear days, you can even capture Mount Fuji from specific seats. Enjoying Japanese cuisine while admiring the mountain view outside the window is a healing moment unique to Yamanashi.
• In the afternoon, head to Kawaguchiko Oishi Park, stroll along the seasonal flower street, where tulips, lavender, kochia, and the lake complement each other, with Mount Fuji standing quietly in the distance, perfectly beautiful. Finally, visit Yamanashi Fruit Park to experience seasonal fruit picking. Strawberries, cherries, peaches, or grapes – the sweetness of the fruits you pick yourself brings a perfect end to this journey.

* In one day, hiking, photography, train rides, flower fields, and fruits are all included – a route that even first-time visitors to Mount Fuji will love.
