Fujinomiya Onsen is near the base of Mount Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture. This onsen area is special because it offers a unique opportunity to experience hot springs in the shadow of Japan’s iconic peak. This onsen area has mineral-rich waters, which are believed to have healing properties, particularly beneficial for skin health. The onsen facilities here are often smaller and more intimate compared to more commercialized hot spring resorts.
When you visit Fujinomiya Onsen make sure to explore the local culture and nature, including the nearby Fujinomiya Sengen Shrine, which has a long history connected to Mount Fuji worship. The area’s proximity to the mountain also makes it an excellent spot for hiking and enjoying panoramic views.
