Skiing Mount Fuji (富士山)(3776 m)



How to get there: Somebody posted the timetables on this site and my impression is that they provide this type of infromation systematically.
Length:
1200-1300 vertical meters. You might notice the air getting thinner, so with light baggage you might do it in 5 hours, anything less would be quite fast. The descent takes less than an hour. Add maybe 30 minutes back and forth for the horizontal part from the bus stop to where the path starts to climb.

Map:
For hiking, there are plenty of signs etc. No good map is necessary. The sketches that can be found on mountfujiguide are sufficient. Of course, Yamachizu has a Fuji map, and I am sure you can find many more. For skiing...
