Layover at Fuji Kawaguchiko

Layover at Fuji Kawaguchiko

This quiet town of Fujikawaguchiko gets busy with the influx of tourists – foreigners, and locals alike – all year round.
But still, unlike other attractions around here (Mt. Fuji Ropeway and Fuji-Q Highlands) where queues are long, the town also has tourist spots closer to nature, where you can enjoy and relax without getting stressed due to queuing up. If you are fond of walking around to stroll then you will definitely love it there.
There was a bit of a scary moment when we were exploring our AirBnB house because it was huge and the design is inspired by the olden Japanese style (with a tatami flooring). But don’t worry, it’s a great deal. It’s clean, quiet, and complete with appliances. Ideal for groups of 8 and more.

What would winter in Hokkaido be like without the ski adventure?

While other people are trying to make themselves warm from the cold weather, we tried to expose ourselves to a “cooler” and extreme adventure. Having no experience made it difficult at first but eventually, I managed to complete a few beginners’ trails.

Sapporo Teine is a ski resort just 30 minutes train-ride away from Sapporo Station. The place is complete with equipment and ski outfit rentals, restaurants, lifts and beginner to advance ski routes. The snow is deep and powdery so no matter how hard you fall, it won’t really hurt a lot. Lol!
