Mt. Fuji Mountain Huts (富士山の山小屋)
for the Yoshida and Fujinomiya
Trails
(Info current as of July
2019*)
June
4, 2021 update: GAME ON, or so it appears. Although not yet
official, this past Monday the Fujisan World Cultural Heritage Council
posted on their website
safety tips and videos on how to
avoid congestion during the 2021 Mount Fuji climbing season, if it
occurs. Even though I still have my doubts, it seems some folks are at
least getting prepared.... just in case.  More details on the 2021 Mt. Fuji
climbing season, including a projected congestion calendar and video
are here: Climbing Mt. Fuji (富士山) - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Notes:
- Opening/closing dates are subject to change,
depending on weather (snow) conditions
- (EWP) =
English webpage
- (ESS) =
English-speaking staff
- (OBE) = Online booking in English
- (OBJ) = Online booking in Japanese
- Japan's
country code is 81, and when the above phone numbers are called
from overseas, the area code's leading "zero" is dropped; thus
0555-84-2179 would be dialed as +81-555-84-2179,
and 090-7182-4662
becomes +81-90-7182-4662. Dialed from America, the latter number would
be 011-81-90-7182-4662 (including the 011 international prefix).
Numbers beginning with 090 & 080 are
cell phones.
- * The
above chart was updated with June 2019 info I received in person
on July 9, 2019 from the Tokyo Tourist Info Center. 2019
info
on Mt. Fuji mountain huts for ALL four routes can be found here: https://partners-pamph.jnto.go.jp/simg/pamph/293.pdf
- Average Mt. Fuji mountain hut overnight fees
generally range from ¥5500-8000, with the more expensive charges for
weekends and higher elevations. Meal charges are generally around
¥1000. (2012 prices for most of the huts above
are here,
and are obviously outdated, but might be useful for comparative
purposes. Also, you'll want to disregard the phone numbers and
opening/closing dates
on that page, as the info on this
page you are now viewing is more
current.)
- Starting from July 1, 2018, a
manned exchange center will be introduced onto the 1st floor of Fujikyu
Unjokaku which will handle 158 different currencies, every day during
climbing season from 7:00am-10:00pm. Fujikyu Unjokaku’s capsule hotel
service Mt. Fuji Lodge is introducing an online booking system.
Bookings will take place on the Fujikyu Unjokaku website and can be
made in Japanese or English – with credit and debit cards, too (also
with non-Japanese online travel agents such as Expedia and Agoda).

Mt. Fuji
mountain hut reservations FAQ:
A number of Mt. Fuji huts start accepting reservations from April. If
there are no provisions on their websites offering online reservations,
you might try the office (off-season) phone numbers above to contact
the huts.
They will usually ask for:
1) Your (or group leader's) name (please spell it slowly)
2) Your date(s) of stay
3) Number of males/females in your group
4) Whether you'd like dinner and/or breakfast
If you speak slowly and use easy English, there shouldn’t be any major
communication issues.
Since Mt. Fuji became registered as a World Heritage Site in June 2013,
reservations have become absolutely necessary. They only accept cash
and do provide very basic, rudimentary bedding.
