Mt. Fuji & Beyond: Unforgettable Views from 箱根園

Mount Fuji's majesty is magnified in this close-up view

Imagine capturing a stunning photo with majestic Mount Fuji in the background!
The Hakone Komagatake Ropeway whisks you up Mount Komagatake⭐⭐, offering breathtaking panoramic views in just a 7-minute ride.

Unveil a breathtaking scene: Lake Ashi shimmers below, like a miniature garden, while Mount Fuji stands tall to the north. Gaze further and witness a vast panorama – Suruga Bay (駿河湾) , the Izu Peninsula (伊豆半島) , the Izu Seven Islands (伊豆七島), the Shonan Coast (湘南海岸), and even the Boso Peninsula (房総半島) in the distance.

Embrace the beauty year-round: Enjoy crisp, clear views from October to November, or be mesmerized by the dazzling night lights of Sagami Bay (相模湾) and Suruga Bay (駿河湾) sparkling below. Stargazers will be awestruck by the extraordinary night sky visible from the summit. Hakone Komagatake Ropeway promises an unforgettable experience, day or night!

Our trip to Hakone Komagatake Ropeway on April 6, 2024, was unforgettable! The day before, typhoon-like weather must have cleared the skies because we were rewarded with a perfect view of Mount Fuji. We snapped some amazing photos that will forever be a memento of this breathtaking moment.

While the famed 湖畔の一本桜 awaited the arrival of spring, its silhouette etched against the sky hinted at the impending spectacle of blossoms
