Why FYG?

Mt.Fuji has become a symbol of JAPAN same as Cherry blossoms. Fuji is not a technical peak,
but not everyone successfully reaches the summit. The most important factor affecting the success rate is
the time you spend acclimatizing on the mountain. Our professional guides have been leading groups up to the summit
with comfortable pace and rhythm.

Safety
Each group will be accompanied by a guide who is certified either JMGA[Japan Mountain Guide Association]
or Fuji-Yoshida City certified Mt.Fuji Guide. All guides have a wilderness first aid certification.
Guides practice rescue senarios and safety mountain travel skills.
We have a good relationship with the local rescue services.

History and culture
Do you know the meaning of Fuji? who was the first person to climb Mt.Fuji? or why there are so many TORII
[Gate of Shrine] along the way?
Climbing Mt.Fuji is not just exciting outdoor experience, but also a breathtaking cultural experience.
FYG are a great source of local culture and ancient history.

Small Group
Maximum 7 guests per a guide.
Small groups make you feel part of our family.
