Fuji Five Lakes

Formed As Streams And Dams Were Clogged By Volcanic Ash And Lava

Reviewed By SurfingWild - Bandung, Indonesia

The area north of Mt. Fuji contains several lakes and is called the Fuji Five Lakes area. The lakes are specifically Kawaguchiko, Saiko, Yamanakako, Shojiko and Motosuko and they afford the best views of Fuji including many of those seen in magazines and advertising. Therefore I would strongly urge any visitor to Japan to include a visit during their trip. The biggest lake is Kawaguchiko and that area has a town and many things to see and do as well as several excellent hotels, some with hot spa's. One can actually driver around Fuji beginning at places like Mishima which is a station on the main Tokyo to Osaka shinkansen line, and rent a car as we normally do to drive up the east side of Fuji, round the top and down the west side. This can be done in a day, but I"d recommend spending at least one of two days to explore the area as there are truly some wonderful places to visit.

Lake Kawaguchiko

Reviewed By patrickperbkk

Lake Kawaguchiko is one the the Mt Fuji 5 Lakes. It's very convenient to travel from Tokyo by train, highly suggested to get a Tokyo pass and reserve the seat. Also, it's highly recommended to rent a bike, the best way to travel around the Lake. There are many nice cafes and restaurant around the Lake area.

Easy walk to/from Kappa Bridge. Scenery along the Azusa river was so beautiful ard 3rd week of October, even though we visited 1-2weeks before the peak autumn.

It worth 1hr walk from Kappa Bridge. This place is so magical, peaceful and very beautiful. Visit to Kamikochi is not complete without visiting Myojin pond. The 2nd pond beside the main pond was like man made, so beautiful.
