January. Nagano or Fuji area 2016/11/28 09:36
Hello,
I would be going to Japan in mid January.
Points to consider are that
- I just want a relaxing trip
- to me onsens are a big part of relaxing
- I've been to Japan a few times now but have only seen my Fuji once from a Shinkansen window
- I heard that Mt Fuji is clearer in winter
- daylight is lesser in mountainous regions and winter

I am planning to travel from Tokyo to Toyama. The question is whether to stay 2 nights in Nagano or to stay one in Nagano and one in the Fuji area. I am thinking of fujigoko, though if the onsens are substantially better in Hakone do recommend that. (I understand that Hakone is overpriced but since I wouldn't have time to go to kusatsu , Fuji and then to Toyama...)

Anyone have any suggestions on the route that should be taken. Note: I do plan to go to the Fuji area sometime in May sometime else, is it truly significantly less visible in non winter months?
