This live stream looks toward Mount Fuji from the Fuji View Hotel in Fujikawaguchiko, a lakeside town on the northern foot of Japan's best-known volcano. It is a useful way to check whether the peak is visible before you travel. The page also shows local time and weather for the town.
About the setting
Fujikawaguchiko sits at roughly 840 metres above sea level beside Lake Kawaguchi, one of the Fuji Five Lakes. The town is known as one of the classic viewpoints for the mountain, with its symmetrical cone rising above the water and forested hills. Visitors come for the scenery, hot springs and access to the wider Fuji area from Tokyo.
What to watch on the camera
The stream is aimed at Mount Fuji, so the summit and upper slopes are the main subject. Clear mornings are generally the best time to see the peak, since clouds often build up over the mountain during the afternoon, especially in warmer months. Changing light at sunrise and sunset can also show the volcano in different colours. Visibility depends on weather, so the view may be partly or fully hidden at times.
Practical notes
Winters are cold and often clear, which gives the best chances of an unobstructed peak, while summer is humid and hazier. Spring and autumn are popular for both views and walking. Several other cameras in the area, including the Lake Kawaguchi tour boat and tourism association views, are listed on this page for comparison. The town is reached by bus or train from Tokyo and Shinjuku.
