Glamping Village Fuji Kawaguchiko and other glamping sites

The rates on the resort’s booking engine are per person with 2 sharing¹. The room-only plan includes no meals¹. The resort says its 30 units make it one of the largest in Yamanashi Prefecture³.

Here’s what you get:

• Luxury villas or outdoor-style tents³
• Natural hot-spring water in every room³
• Two-bedroom villas aimed at groups and large parties³
• Dedicated rooms where you can stay with your dog³
• Preschool children can share a bed⁷

If you smoke, step outside: smoking is banned indoors, e-cigarettes included⁷.

It works well if you:

• want Mount Fuji at its clearest: JNTO says it’s best seen in the morning¹², before haze and cloud build up, and TOCORO says you can see Mt. Fuji from inside every dome¹³
• bring a dog: on top of the dog-friendly sites in the table, Glamping Village has dedicated dog rooms³ and Glamping B&V has cabins with a dog run¹⁰
• like to cook your own dinner: Dot Glamping lets you bring your own food and alcohol¹⁴
• want a night outdoors in comfort: JNTO’s blog says a night beneath the stars no longer means roughing it¹⁵

In the cold months, check for heating. Dot Glamping’s cabins have air conditioning and heating¹⁶, The Villa Glamping sells an air-conditioned Dome Tent⁸, and TOCORO calls itself all-weather¹³.

Want hot water without the canvas? Look at the Kawaguchiko ryokan with private bath or these compared ryokan stays by Lake Kawaguchi. On a tighter budget, try the hostel guide for Fujikawaguchiko.

• Naruzawa Ice Cave is a two-tunnel lava cave with icicles and ice pillars²². From 16 October to 15 November it opens 9:00 to 17:00²¹ (checked October 2026).
• A 2-hour guided course²³ covers Fugaku Wind Cave, the ice cave and an Aokigahara forest walk.
• The Green Line sightseeing bus links Saiko, Aokigahara Forest and the ice cave²⁴.

GLAMP DOME Fuji Oshino sells the Jukai Walking tour. It runs April to October, 8:00–9:30 and 10:30–12:00, and meets at Glamping Village Fujikawaguchiko²⁵, where the guide takes you on to the walking area. You can read up first on the ice cave and Aokigahara forest walks.

No car for the day? The private nature tour from Kawaguchiko starts in town and takes in nature spots around Mt Fuji.

Further afield, around the lake:

• The Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway links the Lake Kawaguchi shore with Mt. Tenjo, about 1,075 m²⁶.
• The Kawaguchiko Music Forest Museum is on the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko²⁷, about 20 minutes on the Red Line bus from Kawaguchiko Station²⁸.
• Oshino Hakkai’s spring ponds have no free public parking²⁹, so work out where to park before you drive over from your site.
