Key Information

Description

Join an experienced and highly specialized guide on a one-of-a-kind tour hiking up Mt. Tsukuba, where you'll discover hidden gems and breathtaking vistas that few others can find. This experience is fully customized, so consult your guide after booking to arrange a half day of nature and cultural exploration that few tours can match! In Japan’s Edo Period, people would say “Fuji of the West, Tsukuba of the East,” and the two mountains are considered by some to be rivals. While the upper slopes of Mt. Fuji are rather barren, Mt. Tsukuba boasts lush vegetation that gives it a different appearance in each season. It is also known as one of Japan’s “100 Famous Mountains,” and is the lowest at 877 meters (2,877 feet), making it an ideal destination for those who want to enjoy the great outdoors without too much difficulty. Mt. Tsukuba is also a cultural icon, mentioned in many poems in the ancient text “Manyoshu,” and has long been the object of mountain worship. Enjoy its lush greenery in summer or red leaves in autumn, decorating its twin peaks Nantai-san and Nyotai-san. If you wish, you can ride the Mt. Tsukuba Cable Car or the ropeway (additional fees apply) offering yet more amazing views.
