Season for Climbing

Due to the high altitudes, Mt. Fuji is not open for hiking for most of the year. Even in the spring, there is still a lot of unstable snowy areas. Climbers can only summit during the summer months, from early July to mid-September annually. The trail is opened according to the weather conditions.

Altitude Sickness

The accommodation altitude is 3,100m and the maximum elevation is 3,776m at the summit. Symptoms of mild high-altitude sickness, such as headaches may occur as you approach the mountain huts or the summit. It is important to take care to get enough sleep and manage your physical condition from the days leading up to the hike. The better your physical condition, the less likely you will have trouble.
