  • WE CLIMBED MT. FUJI!! Today we’re showing you our experience climbing Japan’s highest mountain, Mount Fuji, at night in August 2021! (Watch in HD!)
    We vlog our whole Mount Fuji hike, so you can see the full Fuji climbing experience. Be prepared for some stunning views from Mt. Fuji, including the famous sunrise at the summit of Fuji. This was definitely our most breathtaking experience in Japan (literally- the altitude was a struggle!)
    We climbed the Fujinomiya trail, known for having a shorter but more difficult assent than the popular Yoshida trail. We decided to bullet climb (climbing throughout the night to reach the summit at sunrise) and set off just before sunset. Due to the nature of 2021 meaning Japan currently has no tourists and us choosing to hike on a weekday, you’ll see that we were climbing Mount Fuji with no crowds! It felt like we had Fuji-san to ourselves and was an amazing surreal experience of Japan’s most iconic mountain.
    If you visit Japan, don’t miss out on climbing all (or some) of Mt. Fuji! We created another video as a Mount Fuji Climbing Guide, so you know exactly what to bring and expect! Watch it here:

    Wow that looks like such a good experience. I honestly never saw any footage or photos of fuji from on the mountain, I had no idea it was so grand! On a scale of 1-10, how worth it would you say that whole trip was?

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  2 года назад +2

      It would have to be a 10/10. if you start just before sunset and make it to the top for sunrise, it is genuinely unbelievable. We have never seen such beautiful scenery. The walking it tough but definitely worth the hike. It's one of those things you just have to do if you're in Japan

      Thank you! We did see a lot more people coming up in the day time. I think on the Yoshida trail which is more popular many people climb at night too, from videos we’ve seen before it’s usually very very busy even at night!

    Came across your channel by chance whilst checking out Fuji videos and it was a lot of fun 👌🏼This is top of my bucket list and to get a stick too as a momento. Have you had any issues having the larger stick with your luggage whilst travelling back to the UK or anywhere else? I know that’s quite a random question haha

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  2 года назад +1

      Thank you! The walking stick was fine to take back to Kobe from Fuji, and should be fine within Japan. Travelling abroad I think the best thing to do would be to check it in, maybe strap It to your suitcase? I'm sorry I cant be more of a help haha

      We didn't make a reservation, but I would definitely recommend making one. As we climbed during covid there were no tourists and far fewer Japanese climbers so it was much less busy

      i climbed to 3,500 with my 12yr old school friends, so as long as youre fairly in shape its not that bad. just let yourself rest at every station so your body properly adjusts to the altitude so you dont get sick
