Fuji Five Lakes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fuji Five Lakes (富士五湖, Fuji goko) are located in an arc around the northern half of Mount Fuji in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. They are:
- Lake Kawaguchi (Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi)
- Lake Motosu (Kamikuishiki, Yamanashi)
- West Lake (Saiko, Yamanashi)
- Lake Shoji (Kamikuishiki, Yamanashi)
- Lake Yamanaka (Yamanakako, Yamanashi)
All five feature beautiful views of the mountain, especially in the spring and autumn, when the snow partially covers the peak. These lakes are in the countryside, and many resorts offer camping, boating, fishing, and similar rustic recreation. The comforts of civilization are also available.
