You step off the Shinkansen into a cooler wind and the scent of cedar—within two hours the city’s noise is replaced by a ropeway that lifts you over pines and the steam-plumed crater of Owakudani. Below, the pale surface of a volcanic valley hisses; across the horizon, Mt. Fuji waits for clear weather to reveal its cone. A pirate ship carves a slow line across Lake Ashi, and by afternoon a warm onsen soaks into tired muscles.
