North shore promenade
Classic postcard angle with Fuji reflected in the lake. Walk west from Kawaguchiko Ohashi bridge.
Fuji Five Lakes
Lake Kawaguchiko, the closest Fuji view.
The largest of the Fuji Five Lakes and the easiest base for first time visitors. Direct bus and train from Tokyo, viewpoints in every direction and onsen ryokan on the shore.
