Climbing Mount Fuji Alone
I still cannot believe I made it
Mount Fuji, one of the most known national symbol of Japan, is a breathtaking mountain that attracted millions of adventurous people to challenge. Only available during early July to early September, Mount Fuji offers four trails for hikers to select from. From the relatively beginner friendly Yoshida Trial to the challenging Gotemba Trial, each trial is a unique hiking experience that excites every nature lover.
As a person who does not regularly exercise nor have any experience in hiking, I never thought of taking such challenge during my short exchange in Japan. It was after friends telling me it was a once in a life time experience, I decided to challenge myself.
