Ideas for Kawaguchiko:

  • Hotel Mifujien: [1] "This aging hotel is the only one of the ryokan and hotels along Lake Kawaguchiko's northeastern shore which opens its baths to non-staying guests during the day. Its gender separated bathing facilities have seen better days, but the views of Mount Fuji are quite nice." Seems it's open to non-guests at 1pm but [TODO] we should call to confirm.
    • ~2k walk (should be <30m) or we can take the tourist bus which comes ever 15m and costs ¥230
  • Onsen "This new facility is run by and located next to Fuji Q Highland. Its baths are a modern take on traditional wooden bathhouses with both indoor and outdoor baths for each gender. Unfortunately, the baths do not face Mount Fuji, but there is a good view of the mountain from the restaurant."
