Discover the hidden side of Mt. Fuji

Here are some unseen or lesser-known travel spots around Mount Fuji for a more unique and peaceful experience:

1. Shiraito Falls (白糸の滝)
Tucked away in Fujinomiya, these elegant, thread-like waterfalls are fed by Mt. Fuji’s spring water. A peaceful alternative to the busier tourist areas.

2. Lake Saiko Bat Cave
A lava-formed cave near Lake Saiko where bats hibernate in winter. It’s one of the Fuji Five Lakes’ “Fugaku Wind Caves,” yet less visited than the Ice Cave.

3. Iyashi no Sato
A reconstructed traditional thatched-roof village on the western shore of Lake Saiko. Offers kimono rentals, crafts, and unobstructed views of Fuji — but in a quiet, open-air setting.
