Activity itinerary

Shin-Fuji Station
  • 15m
You'll start at Shin-Fuji Station.
Suzukawako Park
  • 5m
This park has a tsunami evacuation tower. It is 15 metres high and can accommodate up to 120 people. In the event of an earthquake, a tsunami over 10 metres high is expected to follow.
Suzukawa no Fujizuka
  • 5m
During the Muromachi to Edo periods,(around the 1300s to the 1800s) the number of Shugendō practitioners who trained on Mount Fuji increased significantly. These practitioners purified their bodies and minds by swimming in the waters of the Suzukawa coast. They would then leave a sacred stone at the Fujizuka Hill and pray for a safe ascent of Mount Fuji.
Sunayama Park
  • 10m
Beautiful Tagonoura Sand Dunes. This coast consists of an arc-shaped sand dune formed by the accumulation of sediment from the Fuji River on the steep slopes created by lava flows from Mount Fuji. The Tagonoura Sand Dunes, stretching approximately 22 kilometres east to west from the left bank of the Fuji River to the mouth of the Kano River, are about 200 to 800 metres wide and have an elevation of 5 to 10 metres
Nichirenshu Ryuen Temple
  • 5m
The anchor and log book of the Geratic, located within the grounds of Ryenji Temple. The Geratic was a cargo ship from Jakarta that encountered Typhoon 20 in 1979 and was shipwrecked, washing ashore on Kashiwabara Beach, where two crew members lost their lives. The ship's hull remained upright on the sandy beach without tipping over, which became a major storey at the time and attracted many spectators.
Yusui Park
  • 5m
Mount Fuji is not only a volcano but also a mountain of water, storing a significant amount of water. The people living around Mount Fuji have utilised this water for their daily lives and the development of industries. It is said that the amount of rain and snow falling on Mount Fuji totals approximately 2.1 billion tonnes per year, with around 1.8 billion tonnes of this water being stored annually. This water seeps into the mountain, flowing underground, and eventually emerges as spring water on the surface of the foothills after several decades. The amount of groundwater stored in Mount Fuji is estimated to be enough for about two years' worth of use for the people living in Japan.
Fujisan Yumeno Ohashi
  • 5m
You can enjoy a magnificent view of Mount Fuji from this bridge. Please note that participants will have to go down 50 steps at the bridge.
Shin-Fuji Station
  • 1m
Return to the starting point.
