All Reviews of Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway

Inspired by the famous Japanese folktale “Kachi Kachi Yama,” the Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway at Lake Kawaguchi, also known as the Mt. Tenjo Ropeway, features lively and adorable statues of the tanuki and rabbit from the story at the entrance and the summit observation deck! The statues faithfully recreate the classic scene in which the tanuki sinks in a mud boat while the rabbit rows a wooden boat, and their cute, playful designs are very eye-catching. The ropeway takes only a few minutes to reach the summit, where you can enjoy sweeping views of Lake Kawaguchi and majestic Mt. Fuji, taste tanuki dango stamped with a Mt. Fuji design, and pray for romantic luck. Full of childlike charm and offering superb views, it’s a must-visit photo spot during an independent trip to Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi!

At Tenjoyama Park, you can easily take the ropeway to the top and look out over Lake Kawaguchi and the stunning scenery of Mt. Fuji. The views are truly impressive. The park has an observation deck, walking paths, and an adorable rabbit shrine, making it a great place for photos and relaxation.

Mt. Tenjo is definitely worth visiting. The ropeway ride up feels really relaxing, and on a clear day, Mt. Fuji looks incredibly sharp. Paired with Lake Kawaguchi, the view has so much depth.

You can get a stunning view of Lake Kawaguchi and Mt. Fuji from here. On clear days, the scenery is especially amazing.

There were about 30 or 40 people packed into one car. It was hard to breathe, and even taking photos was tough!

The ropeway only departs when it's full, so you might have to wait a bit. The scenery around is pretty nice though, so it didn't bother me much.
