Gonna be going to climb Mount Fuji in 2 days. Super excited about it and looking forward to some time off work
Please share some pictures here :)
good luck, i hope it goes well!
Exciting! Please send pics if you’re willing to!
I recently heard a radio feature about it, they have problems with it being overrun by tourists, people not being prepared (it's a mountain, not a walk in the park) and leaving their trash everywhere +_+ So please take care! And enjoy it must be an amazing trip ^^
Actually not as many people as I expected when I went. I know it's not a walk in the park haha I been living in Japan for 4 years and hiker many other mountains just never had the time to go to Fuji because it's pretty far from me where I am located in Japan. The hike itself was a lot easier than I expected and there's so so so many rests stop with drinks and foods that even people not in shape could probably hike it. Definitely enjoyed every bit of it and wish I could go do it again.
That's interesting, the article I read made it sound like it was a serious hike (but I guess "easy" and "hard" will mean very different things to different people). I'm glad you enjoyed it, it seems like a really cool thing to do ^__^
