Mount Fuji

Ascent of Mount Fuji from the bus stop and Step 5 at 2,400 metres. Demanding hike. The climb is steep between the path of small cinders and lava flow, and the last 300 metres are difficult due to the altitude. You can refuel at each step (including small oxygen tanks!) and have your walking stick engraved as you climb. The descent is difficult only because of another path made of small cinders that get into your shoes. Great satisfaction when you return to the starting point.

Hello,

You can refuel at each step ... including having your walking stick engraved as you climb.
