Introducing Hakone
Hakone is Tokyo’s original tourist mecca and remains popular for views of Mt Fuji, mountainous topography, art museums, onsen (and eggs boiled in them) and the opportunity to ride a variety of transport. The tourist track lets you explore the region via switchback train, funicular, ropeway (gondola) and pirate ship.

Unfortunately – particularly during the height of summer and on weekends year-round – Hakone can be quite busy and feel highly packaged. To beat the crowds, plan your trip during the week. For more information, try www.hakone.or.jp/english.
