Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway
〜河口湖〜富士山パノラマロープウェイ
A three-minute ropeway up to Tenjoyama Park, where the summit offers a view of both Lake Kawaguchi and the full panorama of Mount Fuji.
The ropeway departs from the east shore of Lake Kawaguchi and climbs in about 3 minutes to Tenjoyama Park, at an elevation of about 1,075 m. The summit observation deck faces Mount Fuji, with Lake Kawaguchi and the streets of Fujiyoshida below. On clear days, you can also see the Southern Alps in the distance. The summit is themed on the Japanese folktale Kachi-Kachi Yama, with statues of a tanuki and a rabbit, the Tanuki Teahouse dango, and a bell to ring for wishes. The round-trip fare is about ¥1,000. It operates roughly 9:00–17:00, and holiday queues can be long. It is about a 15-minute walk from Kawaguchiko Station.
