A new famous spot for 'wishes and good fortune' has been born at the summit of the Mt. Fuji Panorama Ropeway! | ~Lake Kawaguchi~ Mt. Fuji Panorama Ropeway

At the "~Lake Kawaguchi~ Mt. Fuji Panorama Ropeway," on Thursday, July 16, 2026, we will open new landmarks at the summit area at an elevation of approximately 1,090 meters, featuring the 'Goyoku Plaza' and the 'Spectacular Observation Staircase.'

The newly opened 'Goshoku-Hiroba' is a lucky area where you can enjoy not only the spectacular view of Mt. Fuji on clear days but also auspicious experiences that can only be experienced here, all at once. Tenjozan, connected by ropeway, is also known as the setting for Osamu Dazai's classic work "Kachikachi-yama," and charming raccoons and rabbits have welcomed visitors throughout the facility. The newly launched 'Goyoku Plaza' will also showcase this worldview, featuring a variety of hands-on good luck content such as the 'Rabbit Shrine' dedicated to the rabbit god, 'Kawarake Throw' to ward off misfortune, vending machines for ema and amulet, and 'Kachikachi Big Catch Fortune' where you can fish for fortune with a fishing rod. This allows you to enjoy creating memories beyond just spectacular views, even on days with poor weather.

Also, the walking path leading to the 'Goyoku Plaza' is the 35-step 'Spectacular Observation Staircase,' gently connecting a 7-meter elevation difference. This path, characterized by its red torii gate and lanterns, also serves as the approach to Usagi Shrine, and with each step, the sense of anticipation of heading toward the lucky area grows. When descending the stairs, you can enjoy the seasonal scenery of Mt. Fuji, where the vast Mt. Fuji spreads out beyond the torii gate, with cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in autumn.

In the coming season, the magnificent scenery unique to Mount Fuji in summer is a highlight. Please look forward to the Mt. Fuji Panorama Ropeway, where you can enjoy both exclusive views and a sense of good luck.

<Rabbit Shrine>

This shrine enshrines the sacred object of a rabbit inside the shrine, praying for the safety and good legs of tourists and hikers. On either side are two guardian rabbits (komainu), which are not guardian dogs. Petting the head of the proudly bowed 'Yumemi Usagi' will bring you 'wisdom exchange,' while stroking the legs of the 'Fujimi Usagi,' which stands up on its hind legs, will grant you wishes for 'healthy legs.'

You can enjoy the experience of warding off bad luck by throwing unglazed earthenware plates towards Mount Fuji. It is believed that if you hit the target by throwing an unglazed earthenware cup (goblet) made of clay, your wish will come true.
(Price: 100 yen <2 tickets>)

We have newly installed vending machines where you can purchase the warm autumn leaves and hydrangea-shaped voma made from thinned wood, along with colorful rabbit-shaped charms popular as souvenirs, at any time.
