[About Mt. Fuji Climbing Guides]

• Please be aware that there are risks of illness, injury, or loss when climbing, as you will be traveling away from medical areas. Even with a guide, the risks will be minimized, and you must take responsibility for your own safety while climbing.

• At the 5th Station, you will meet up with the tour from other regions, and a designated Fuji mountain guide will accompany you through the climb. However, when descending from the summit, the guide may allow free descent following their instructions.

• During the climb, the guide’s instructions are crucial for your safety. The guide will check your climbing gear, and if there are any issues or if you are deemed unfit due to health or stamina concerns, you may be forced to retire or leave the group for safety reasons. There will be no refunds in such cases.

• If gear is missing or faulty, the guide or local staff will assist with rental or purchase of necessary items.

[About the free plan]

• [Yoshidaguchi Route] After arriving at the 5th Station of Mt. Fuji, please follow the instructions of our staff to begin the climb.

[Notes on climbing Fuji]

• All courses will proceed regardless of rain. However, if heavy rain, storms, or a typhoon occurs, the tour may be canceled in advance. Additionally, if the weather changes suddenly and the guide or the Fuji Mountain Instruction Center decides to cancel the climb or optional crater tour, please understand that no refunds will be provided in such cases.
