Embrace the Adventure: Mt. Fuji Climbing Season is Here!

As the sun rises over Japan's iconic peak, a wave of excitement sweeps through the climbing community. July 1st marks the official start of the Mt. Fuji climbing season, with the Yoshida trail opening its gates to adventurers eager to conquer this majestic mountain. The thrill of reaching the summit, surrounded by breathtaking vistas, is an experience like no other. Are you ready to embark on this unforgettable journey?

This year, climbers can anticipate a few changes that aim to enhance safety and protect the environment. On July 10th, the other three trails—Fujinomiya, Gotemba, and Subashiri—will also welcome climbers. However, climbers should be aware of the new regulations that will be enforced, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

New Rules for a Safer Climb

Starting in 2025, several new rules will come into play, focusing on climber safety and environmental conservation. Here’s what you need to know:

• Mandatory Pre-Registration: Climbers planning to use the Fujinomiya, Gotemba, or Subashiri trails must pre-register through the SHIZUOKA FUJI NAVI app. This digital platform provides essential features such as permit issuance, tracking, and safety information, ensuring climbers are well-prepared for their adventure.

• Climbing Fee: A fee of 4,000 yen per person will be implemented. This fee will contribute to maintaining the trails and supporting conservation efforts.

• Nighttime Access Restrictions: Access to the mountain from 2 PM to 3 AM will be limited to those with reservations at mountain huts. This regulation aims to reduce overcrowding and enhance safety during nighttime climbs.
