This area around Mt. Fuji is gorgeous and has tons to offer – it’s also one of the best trips to do in a campervan. There’s no guarantees of seeing Mt. Fuji on any trip to Japan so we were on a hunt to hopefully see at least a little of this beautiful mountain. Vanlife in Japan definitely has its ups and downs, but this specific road trip around Mt. Fuji has been so memorable for us!
