Osaka to Mount Fuji question 2015/2/21 17:10
Hi peeps, hope someone out there can help me

I've been researching on how to get to Mount Fuji from Osaka using the Shinkansen (nozomi train) but I'm getting a wee bit confused when I try to check for the charges

please correct me if i'm wrong but from my search, I depart from the Shin Osaka station to Shin-Fuji right? But I can't seem to find the Shjn-Fuji station listed on the jreast website link here for the Nozomi, Hikari and Kodama trains : http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/charge/index.html

However, I'm able to find out the rates on the jr central website on the hikari and kodama trains here : http://english.jr-central.co.jp/info/fare/...kari_kodama.pdf but not able to find them for the Nozomi trains : http://english.jr-central.co.jp/info/fare/_pdf/nozomi.pdf

so am abit confused at this rate, is there another station I should be looking at if I were to take the Shinkansen from Osaka to Mt. Fuji ? thanks for the help

It depends where around Mount Fuji you want to go! Mishima could be the better station to get off. For example, if you plan to go to the Fuji Five Lake region, I recommend to go to Mishima as explained here:

But I can't seem to find the Shjn-Fuji station listed on the jreast website link here for the Nozomi, Hikari and Kodama trains : http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/charge/index.html

The Tokaido Shinkansen is not operated by JR East (but by JR Central, also known as JR Tokai). That's why. See more details about the Tokaido Shinkansen here:

However, I'm able to find out the rates on the jr central website on the hikari and kodama trains here

Ah now I understand..thank you so much for the reply and help, appreciate it loads

I'm not sure which area around Mt. Fuji I'd wanna go just yet, still researching on it, any recommendations you might be able to share apart from Fuji Five Lake to get the best view of Mt. Fuji ?
