Guided 2-Day Mt. Fuji Expeditions

What's your climbing style?

Make no mistake: Mt. Fuji is not a "walk in the park."

The internet is full of claims that "it's easy for beginners," but on the mountain...


I didn't think it would be this hard...

We see many people exhausted and giving up on the very first day.

Yamatrip's expeditions are not "sightseeing tours" where you just walk a few steps. We focus on getting you to the summit.

Our itineraries are specifically designed for beginners to succeed in their first Mt. Fuji challenge.

What you need to participate is basic physical fitness and, above all, a strong desire to reach the top.

For those who are truly worried about finishing, we offer plans designed to minimize the risk of dropping out on day one. For those serious about standing on top of Japan, we provide the ultimate route and support system.

4 Reasons to Choose Yamatrip

① Expertly Arranged Beginner-Friendly Routes

Shortest Route
  • Fujinomiya Route: The Shortest Path to the Summit
    By minimizing walking distance, this route is perfect for those concerned about endurance. While some claim this route increases the risk of altitude sickness, Yamatrip solves this through expert pacing by professional guides, ensuring you reap the benefits of the "shortest distance" with maximum safety.
Prince Route
  • Prince Route: Intermediate Landscapes, Beginner Comfort
    Usually considered an intermediate trek due to the harsh descent, Yamatrip has modified the itinerary to use a gentler descent route. This reduces impact on your knees while allowing you to enjoy the spectacular Hoei Crater and less crowded trails.

Which expedition is right for me?


"I live far away, I'm busy, and I only have 2 days off. Is it possible?"

A

Absolutely. We offer plans that sync with flights from 27 airports. We meet at Haneda and return you there. You can reach the summit of Japan in just 48 hours, and you even get to choose your route.


"I don't exercise much, and I'm worried about my stamina..."

We’ve got you covered. On day one, the hiking time is only 3 hours. We use an "Acclimatization Plan" that lets your body adjust to the altitude gradually overnight.

"I've climbed the Yoshida Route before, but it was so crowded and the scenery got boring..."

A

We understand. The Prince Route cuts right across the Hoei Crater, letting you avoid the crowds while enjoying dynamic volcanic landscapes. It's the perfect choice for your second Fuji climb.

"Can't I just climb Mt. Fuji without a tour?"

A

Yes. However, if you want to climb "easily," "affordably," and "reliably," a tour is your best bet. Buying gear is expensive, and researching what to get is a hassle. Booking huts and buses on your own is incredibly tedious. With Yamatrip, your mountain hut, guide, and round-trip transport from Shinjuku/Haneda are arranged in one go. Plus, you can rent a complete set of high-quality gear from "Yamadogu Rental" at a special discounted rate. Most importantly, having a professional guide ensures proper pacing, which drastically increases your chances of reaching the summit.
