Where to Stay on Mount Fuji:
Complete Mountain Hut Guide for Night Climbers
Booking a mountain hut is not just recommended for a night climb — since 2024 it is required to pass the gate after 2:00 PM. Without a reservation you cannot start your climb in the evening and you will miss the sunrise from the summit. This guide covers every hut on all four trails.
Reservations for the 2026 climbing season open on Monday April 27, 2026. Popular huts on the 7th and 8th station of the Yoshida Trail sell out within days, especially for weekends in late July and August. Book as soon as the system opens.
All mountain huts per trail
Select your trail to see all available huts with station, elevation, reservation method and booking link. For night climbers the Yoshida Trail has the most options and is the recommended route.

What to expect in a mountain hut
Mountain huts on Fuji are basic but functional. Here is what you need to know before you book.
How to book — step by step
Most Yoshida Trail huts can be booked in English online. For other trails, phone reservation in Japanese may be required.
Choose your trail and station
For night climbers, the Yoshida Trail with a 7th or 8th station hut is the standard recommendation. Higher stations mean a shorter, less tiring summit push to catch the sunrise.
Book via Japan Mountain Huts (Yoshida Trail)
The easiest English-language booking platform for Yoshida Trail huts is japanmountainhuts.com. Full payment is required upfront to confirm your reservation.
Screenshot your confirmation
You will need your booking confirmation to pass the gate after 2:00 PM. Save it offline — mobile signal on the mountain is unreliable.
Pre-register and pay the ¥4,000 climbing fee separately
Even with a hut reservation, the climbing fee is required separately. Register online before your climb — the system opens from April 27, 2026.
