48+ Mount Fuji Stick Rune Pics. One of the souvenirs that you can have from climbing mt fuji is to buy a walking stick from 5th station, and then get the stick stamped or branded wherever you see a stamp station as you make your way to the summit. Gaiters are also being used.

The stamp is burned on to your hiking stick to ensure it lasts a long time, but it comes at an additional cost of 200jpy per station. I get a lot of questions about the climb and wanted to do this post to point people to whenever i am asked for tips. Climbing to the top of mount fuji is easily one of the highlights of my time living in japan. Fuji is an active volcano about 100 kilometres southwest of tokyo.
