What to expect

  1. Owaku-dani Valley
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Desolate mountainsides covered by plumes of smoke produce a distinct scene fitting the area’s former name of Hell Valley. Now, the Hakone Ropeway rises above Owakudani. The ropeway also offers many scenic spots. Travelling from Sounzan to Owakudani, passengers can see the bottom of the valley below, and when en route to Togendai, they can enjoy views of Mt. Fuji and Lake Ashi.
  2. 30m · Admission ticket not included
    At Lake Ashi, a serene lake surrounded by mountains, a pirate ship cruise runs between the three ports of Hakonemachi-ko, Motohakone-ko and Togendai-ko. Three ships with different designs sail on the lake, and the visitors can enjoy the grand view of the ships passing by each other.
  3. Hakone-machi
    20m
    There is an avenue of 400 years old Ceder trees just in front of the Onshi Hakone Park. This is a part of the original Tokaido road, which was built by a Shogun in 17 century to connect Tokyo and Kyoto.
  4. Onshi Hakone Park
    1h
    This place was used as a summer retreat for the Japanese imperial families about 150 years ago. Now it's given to the public and you can enjoy a beautiful view of Mt.Fuji over the lake on a clear day. This place has also authentic and lovely gardens.
  5. Hakone Jinja
    1h
    Visit 1266 years old Hakone Shrine. You will learn the history of Shintoism in Japan and how it has affected the local culture and history. The iconic red "Torii" gate on the water is a highlight in this tour.
  6. 30m · Admission ticket included
    The same family owns this tea house (not a tea room) for 400 years with 13 generations. This has been the place where travelers take a rest along their long journey. You can enjoy their special dring, Amazake, with the same recipe that hasn't changed from the very beggining.
