Climbing to Mt. Fuji (Fuji San)

Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776 m . It is one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains" . An active stratovolcano that last erupted in 1707–08, Mount Fuji is just west of Tokyo, and can be seen from there on a clear day. Mount Fuji's exceptionally symmetrical cone is a well-known symbol of Japan and it is frequently depicted in art and photographs, as well as visited by sightseers and climbers.
