Mount Fuji

Mount Fuji stands as Japan's highest peak at 3,776 meters, an active stratovolcano that attracts approximately 200,000 climbers each summer. Its elevation towers 6 times higher than #1 Tokyo's Skytree at 634 meters, making it the country's most recognizable natural landmark. The perfectly symmetrical cone has inspired art and poetry for centuries, symbolizing Japan's natural beauty. Climbers can ascend via the Yoshida Trail, which sees 60% of all summit attempts. Even from afar, Fuji's silhouette dominates the horizon, offering breathtaking views.
