Connect with travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in Japan. From Tokyo’s bustling Shibuya Crossing and historic Asakusa to Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji, Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, and the hot springs of Hakone, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find personal stories, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences. This group supports mobility aid users, along with travelers who have sensory sensitivities, low vision, and hearing loss, helping you enjoy a more accessible Japan adventure.
Reply To: Mt Fuji from Fujikawaguchiko
Hi Bren, obv I don’t know where in Fujikawaguchiko you will be but your first thought was right, it is close to Mt Fuji panoramic ropeway. Just picking a random spot, say Fujikawaguchiko Town Hall, it is less than a 10 min taxi ride to the base of the ropeway. I have previously stayed in Kawaguchiko and that is midway between Fujikawaguchiko & the ropeway.
Hope you manage to make it because it is absolutely stunning! I stayed in a small hostel in Kwawaguchiko & was lucky enough to wake up one morning with a clear view of Mt Fuji 😍
