🇯🇵Hakone must-see attractions Owakudani Tourism and transportation guide

#GlobalTravel

From Shinjuku, Tokyo, you can reach Hakone in about 1.5 hours at the fastest🚅

A must-see attraction in Hakone - Owakudani 🏜️

First, take the mountain tram from Hakone Yumoto Station to Gora Station, and then take the Hakone Mountain Cable Car to Sounzan. It will take you all the way up and you can also enjoy the mountain scenery along the way. Finally, take the aerial cable car from Sounzan to the destination, Owakudani, where you can overlook the volcanic terrain from above.

The location of Owakudani is 1,044 meters high. When we arrived, there was a strong smell of sulfur and we saw the volcano was emitting white smoke🌪️

When you come here, you may want to try Owakudani’s specialty - black eggs. In fact, they taste the same as ordinary boiled eggs, but because they are boiled in sulfur spring water, the eggshell turns black due to chemical reactions.

If the sky is clear and you are lucky, you can see Mount Fuji🗻

Transportation: If you depart from Shinjuku, it is recommended to purchase the Hakone Freepass, which comes in 2-day and 3-day passes. In addition to the round-trip train ticket from Shinjuku to Hakone, the pass also includes most of the transportation in Hakone (aerial cable car, mountain cable car, pirate sightseeing ship, mountain bus), allowing you to experience Hakone in different ways. All the itineraries introduced above can be enjoyed by showing the tour pass🎟️🙂↕️
